Step 2

  • Disconnect the power. The cooker switch will be located near the cooker, or in a cupboard.
  • Move the cooker out of its space, carefully avoiding stressing the gas or electricity supply. These should be long enough to enable access, but do not attempt to disconnect them.
  • You should see a perforated circular panel in the rear cover. This is held in by 5 small lugs which can be snapped. Retain the piece to refit later.

Step 5

  • Fit two of the screws to the corresponding holes in the new motor ready to insert into the keyholes.
  • Fit the motor into the space, hooking the two screws into their holes. Its helpful to have a second person hold the motor in place as you fit the third screw from inside the oven, and tighten up,
  • Reconnect the spade connectors to match the original connections.
  • Check all wires are positioned correctly. Now might be a good time to power the cooker back on and test the motor turns. Remember the over timer will need to be reset to manual. Then power the oven off again.

  • Refit the cover using self tapping screws. If they won’t bite, tie it back on using wire passed through the holes.
  • Fit the new fan onto the shaft inside the oven, remembering that it is a reverse thread. Then refit the rear panel inside the oven with the four screws and replace the lamp cover.
