It's a small fixed-temperature switch that monitors heat around the oven casing and turns the cooling fan on once it reaches 65°C, then off again when things have cooled down. That fan protects the controls and the surrounding cabinetry from excess heat while the oven is in use and after it's switched off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBlanco oven cooling fan won't start or won't stop?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt-in ovens rely on the cooling fan to move hot air away from the controls and out through a front vent. If the cooling thermostat fails open, the fan never starts and the control panel, knobs and cabinet front get hot. That heat can damage electronics, warp cabinetry and trip the oven's safety cut-out. If the thermostat fails closed, the fan may run constantly, even with the oven off and cold. A fan that runs for a while after cooking is normal, as it's clearing leftover heat. Test the thermostat with a multimeter before replacing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Blanco part 12540930\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOven cooling fan thermostat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSwitches at 65°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits Blanco ovens built with this thermostat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSwitching temperature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e65°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the cooling thermostat\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIsolate the oven at the circuit breaker and let it cool. Built-in ovens are usually hard-wired, so this is a job for a licensed electrician. The thermostat is normally mounted near the top of the oven, often reached by removing the top or rear panel. Swap the wires across, make sure the new thermostat sits flat on its mounting so it reads the temperature properly, and check the fan starts as the oven heats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it normal for the cooling fan to run after I turn the oven off?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. The fan keeps running until the area around the oven drops back below the thermostat's switching point, which can take a while after a long bake. If it runs non-stop with the oven cold, the thermostat may have failed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blanco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551223345230,"sku":"12540930","price":57.75,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/12540930-genuine-blanco-oven-cooling-fan-thermostat-65c","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
