    Hi everyone.
    We have a whirlpool fan assisted oven a few years old. The last while it does not cook the food as well as it did.
    It is taking 50 minutes to cook what it took 30 minutes previously.
    While I think it may be the rear circular heating element. How do I determine if it is not a thermostat or temp sensor ?
    I dont mind getting some parts for it looks easy enough to fit .
    Any tips on this is much appreciated in advance!

    once you are getting heat up that discards the element, I would think the most likely culprit is the fan motor, it should spin at full speed not build up slowly, if the temp control was faulty the way its cooking now should be either under/over cooked

    Our oven was going same, the main element was damaged/degraded. Oven was taking ages to heat as the grill element was only working. Our oven isn't fan assisted, just replaced element with similar sized one.

    Thanks for the replies guys . I was having a look at it and trying different settings to see what is the culprit . It looks like the base element is not heating at all . I have a new one on order I suppose it’s a good excuse to give it a deep clean and going over . Thanks
