Oven not heating? Check the cut-out timer

A cut-out timer sits in the oven's power circuit, so the oven only heats while the timer is set or turned to its manual position. When the switch contacts burn or the clock mechanism wears, the timer may stop the oven heating altogether, fail to count down, cut out early or not switch off at all. It's a common reason an oven appears dead while the cooktop still works. Before buying, check the timer is on manual, as that's a frequent cause of no heat.

Fitting a replacement oven timer

Most ovens are hard-wired, so isolate the power at the switchboard and use a licensed electrician. Pull off the timer knob, remove the control panel and photograph the terminal positions before unplugging the old timer. Transfer each wire to the matching terminal on the new one. After refitting, test the oven on manual and with a short timed cook.
