If the paper moves freely in and out it’s time to change the door seal which can be a simple process. You can check this by trying to feed a piece of paper between the frame of the cooker and the door seal when the cooker door is closed. The reason for this is that the cooker oven door seal has become faulty and is no longer creating a tight seal around the oven door frame. This can be due to the escape of heat from through the oven door and in most cases you can feel the heat coming out from around the cooker door. The cooker is taking longer to cook than it used to. See our Lamps, Bulbs & lights section for more details. Here at Cooker Spare Parts we stock a range of genuine and cost saving alternative cooker light bulbs and oven lamps. This scenario is very common and is easy to get fixed. Another possibility is that a thermal cut out (fuse) has become faulty within the appliance and not sending a current to the element to heat the oven. If you find that your electric cooker is not getting hot when you set the appliance to a certain temperature and you can even hear the circulating fan motor turning this could be due to the fact that the cooking element that produces the heat has become faulty. The oven or cooker is not getting hot enough to cook.

Not to worry just enter the manufacturer and model number of your appliance in the search tool and narrow the search to oven elements to find the correct cooker element for your appliance. You can hear the fan in your oven turning but it’s not getting hot, it looks like your fan oven element, base element or top oven element has become faulty or blown. The oven fan is turning but the oven is cold.
