    I think I am Ron-like too

    Last night the better-half came out and said to me the element in the stove was not working. I checked it out and found the element blown but the fan was ok. So today I tracked a new element down and promptly fitted it. Switched on and checked fan and element and both worked perfectly. An hour later I went to heat up some lunch and switched on the stove and walked away. Suddenly there was a blinding flash and the brand new element self destructed. Why? Because the darn fan gave up and the element overheated. Now I am on the scrounge for a new oven before Christmas day.

    Double not happy!!!

    Thanks Hans. Just rang the outlet and he is checking with supplier. Certainly cheaper than new stove. Jim
