Belling oven too hot, too cool or not heating?

The thermostat reads the oven temperature through a sensing bulb in the cavity and switches the elements on and off to hold the temperature you set. As it ages the setting drifts, so cakes burn at the usual temperature or roasts take far longer than they should. A failed thermostat can also leave the oven cold on every setting, or let it keep heating well past the dial setting. If you suspect the thermostat, put an oven thermometer in the centre of the oven and compare its reading with the dial after preheating.

Fitting the oven thermostat

Ovens and cookers are usually hard-wired, so a licensed electrician should fit the thermostat with the power isolated at the switchboard. Photograph the wiring before removing anything. Feed the capillary along the same route as the old one, avoid sharp bends or kinks, and clip the bulb back into its holder in the cavity. Test the oven against a thermometer once it is back together.

Questions about this part

Can I use another 320 degree thermostat?

Thermostats differ in shaft length, terminal layout, capillary length and mounting, even with the same temperature range. This EGO 55.1769.220 unit is the one listed for these Belling models, so it is the safest choice for a correct fit.
