this page cover most common faults and problems with domestic cooking appliances (built in and freestanding ovens, cookers and hobs including gas). like with anything this isn’t 100% and is just a guide, with all cases we recommend booking a glotech engineer out for the quickest and hassle free repair.

built-in

integrated oven

• tripping electrics – commonly caused by a malfunctioning element.
• not heating – could either be the element or fan motor, if the fan is spinning then it is most likely to be the heating element. however could also be caused by a faulty thermostat or timer.
• power is present but isn’t working – sometimes the pcb timers need to be reset for the oven to work.

integrated hob electric

• one dead ring – can be a couple of faults most likely to be a faulty heater.
• two dead rings – being a set of rings have gone it most likely an electronic fault either a burnt out cable or maybe the selector switch.

integrate hob gas

• hob not sparking – can be a couple of issues from a broken spark generator to a damage electrode.
• hob constantly igniting – also can be a couple of issues and isn’t always the same fault.

integrate hood

• noisy – if the change is sudden it is most likely to be a motor fault.

freestanding

range and slot in cookers gas

• small flame in oven – this is often caused by the flame failure device
• hob not sparking – can be a couple of issues from a broken spark generator to a damage electrode
• hob constantly igniting – also can be a couple of issues and isn’t always the same fault.

as per any gas work it is a legal requirement that the worker is gas safe registered, glotech only send out gas safe engineers to gas cookers and hobs. it is vital you get a qualified and insured engineer out who offers a guarantee on any work undertaken just like if you called out a glotech engineer.
