    Fan oven keeps tripping circuit breaker - how to diagnose?

    There's an awful lot of back story involving BG. The engineer was a good guy, but the total faff in getting him onsite means that we've now cancelled our "Home Care" (or whatever) agreement. 1583099238 Cheers - will check out the video! Meanwhile having changed the top element for my old one...

    Fan oven keeps tripping circuit breaker - how to diagnose?

    Looks like we've pinpointed the culprit. With top element disconnected (and spade connectors taped up out of harms way) the oven doesn't trip anymore. Previously it tripped - twice in a row - after only a min or so on "full surface area grill". But now? The centre grill still comes on as...

    Fan oven keeps tripping circuit breaker - how to diagnose?

    I've a 10 yr old Neff combination oven (B6447N0GB /05) that failed recently, and I can't get a replacement component. I found a brand new oven - exactly the same model and revision - I thought I was sorted, but it arrived damaged :( So now I have two ovens, and hoping to make a working oven...
