No Dinner Help

[POPEYE]

Not surf related i know but any help /advice would be appreceiated, After haveing the dinner in the oven for half hour we just realised the buggers stone cold! its a double oven and the top ones working (stuck the dinner in there) Do you think it's the element? and can i test it if i can get it out? i got a multi meter, do i test for circuit on the two connectors? ie no circuit if it's blown,? Would'nt yer know it, the f**ker's just out of warranty i can do without this! Thanks Ian.

remove element and check for continuity on wire conections on it, if its open circuit then its blown mate

Cheer's Mate, i'll have a look tomorrow, Normaly when you open the door the oven and temp indicator light go out, but when i opened it the light came on but no heat! As long as i remember to pull the fuse before i start

as far as i can remember from working as maintenance at the holiday parks a few years back the thermostat used be at the back of the oven at the bottom

There is another way of checking, if you turn the oven on and touch the element wires ( big tingle means element gone and wiring ok ) lol
