Finally got cooker installed - many thanks for all your help. The best bit of advice was to play with a thin bendy piece of wire to see where it was supposed to go ended up being a sort of hockey stick shape. Works fine but very disappointed with build quality. It's a Leisure mini-range thing - looks great, but the metal is really thin, the back is badly fitting, none of the screw holes line up so it's been bent into shape to fit. On the inside the wires are thin and cheaply soldered to this awful connection box. The grill elements are thin. The cooker it replaces was only five years old - grill elements cracked, oven fan broke, and it used to overheat as mentioned before, but it was heavier-built and much more substantial than this one. Can't see it even lasting five years, but that's the way it is these days I guess. Thanks again anyway.
