It is listed for around 40 Technika ovens and cookers, among them the TU950TME8 and TU950TLE8, the T640TE8, the TB62FLSS and TGO68TBS, the TEG64UA and the B9GEFTSS-3. It carries the cross reference A\/492\/06. Similar ovens can use a single probe thermostat instead, so check yours first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOven temperature wrong or not heating? Twin bulb thermostat faults\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thermostat reads the oven temperature through liquid-filled bulbs on thin capillary tubes and switches the elements on and off to hold the setting you choose. On a twin bulb design the two sensing bulbs sit in different spots, which is why one capillary is longer than the other. When a capillary is kinked or cracked, or the contacts wear, the oven may not heat, may overheat and burn food, may cycle erratically or may never reach the set temperature. A knob that turns but changes nothing also points here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine part PA210036002\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross reference A\/492\/06\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin bulb thermostat, one long and one short capillary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for around 40 Technika oven and cooker models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSensor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTwin bulb, one long and one short capillary\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCheck the type, then fit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst open the back or control panel and confirm your existing thermostat has two capillaries, not a single probe. Ovens are usually hard-wired, so a licensed electrician should isolate the supply and complete the job. Photograph the wiring, then carefully feed each bulb into the same clips and positions as the old ones without kinking the capillaries. Check the oven reaches the set temperature with an oven thermometer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I tell a twin bulb thermostat from a single probe?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook at the back of the thermostat body. A twin bulb unit has two thin capillary tubes leading into the oven, one longer than the other. A single probe type has only one.
