poetically enough just a few days after the thread on oven fan element

I suspect the fan element (again) as all was normal til the "power up"
of the element part of the turn on sequence (i.e. after selecting oven
mode and temp) then - dead.
No rcd trip, no MCB trip, no display, clock etc now all dead. ;(((

In the other thread someone mentioned their element going and also an
internal fuse being blown - got the back and top off mine and only one
fuse I can see on the control PCB - looks very (too?) small& visibly
fine - where else might I find the culprit of the death?

(If I can resurrect it I can cook me stew on another mode til I get
the suspect element replaced...)

Similar problem a few weeks ago. No trip but no heat. When I eposed
the element there was a hole in it - obviusly caused by overheating.
Element replaced - back to normal. look at the elemnt.
