Gas cooker problem
CANNON
CAMBRIDGE MK2 Main Oven: Once the burner is ignited, it operates in 'SAFETY MODE' (low flame) after 1 minute the burner should operate with a 'FULL FLAME', but the flame stays in Safety Mode. Note: The grill, top oven & hotplates work & the cooker is not set for an AUTO COOKING PROGRAMME. Any ideas? |

The over whelming majority of ovens use a metal bulb flame sensor which operates on the gas valve to move the flame up to the full rate. However the themrostat could have gone wrong: 1) Check you don't have a duff themrostat by turning to 'Regulo 9' 2) Chekc that there is nothing stopping the low-rate flame from heating the flame sensor bulb. If both of the above don't help then you are looking at the a new gas valve for the oven. -- Ed Sirett - Property maintainer and registered gas fitter.
