    The outer portion of the double grill in top oven no longer heats
    Is it a simple enough fix ? I replaced the element in the bottom over last year as the oven was no longer heating
    So if it's similar I'll be able to do it

    replacement is the same procedure as the oven element, make sure you isolate it

    I think I may have named the wrong part actually
    I replaced the thermostat in the bottom oven last year not the grill element
    (The bottom oven was not heating the grill was fine )

    remove the fixing screw and pull the element gently towards you, remove the leads and dont allow them to fall back in otherwise you will have to remove the back off the cooker to refit the when you fit the new element

    There doesn't appear to be screws
    2 round things but not screws

    So the oven will need to come out so ?
    If it does I'll just work away with the single grill until the whole lot goes

    The picture shows where the outer element split on the bend.

    Oh yes I see that now
    Is it dangerous to keep using it so
    Been gone for best part of a year i think but we have George foreman so rarely use it
