Hotpoint Oven turning itself off - diagnosis help please

Mike Gibbons · 2021-01-31T20:24:47+00:00

Hi,I have a Hotpoint AHP662X built in oven with a fault. If anyone can help with the diagnosis I'd be very grateful. Here's what happens:1. Turn on oven - normal fan setting.2. Oven warms up normally, thermostat clicks and the heating up light goes off.3. After a while - 10 to 30 mins - oven goes off entirely. Fan stopped clock display goes off.4. A few minutes later the power comes back on.5. Oven works for a while before repeating the cutting out cycle.I'm happy digging around in the back and I have a multimeter if more information is needed. Thanks in anticipation- - Mike

Hi All, I know this conversation was a few months ago but can anyone tell me if a overheat sensor is the same as a Oven Thermal Cut out.

Hi Angie, I suspect they are the same thing. I looked at a few ebay listings and they seem to use both terms - and a few others - to refer to the same item.
