Default gas cooker won't stay alight

Hi All,

first time of posting - and hoping

courtesy of the electric company i had a power cut yesterday - but
there must have been a nice power spike as well! it blew a usb hub on
a computer and something to do with ignition on my gas cooker!

the clock on the cooker is blown due to this but also the oven
ignition circuit (automatic ignition). The cooker hob still works so i
know the gas supply is ok. If i light the oven manually it stays
alight for a minute or so, and then goes out!

any ideas and suggestions?, the cooker is about 15 years old but was
working fine, so is it time to replace it, or is it a cheap fix by
replacing some eletrical/electronic component in the cooker.


the cooker is a "new world plan 6"


any help much appreciated

thanks

I think this is what you're after:

MO402 Cooker Module / pcb CA5100 NEW WORLD "Plan 6" £39.00

But can't be sure until you find the part in the cooker and get the model and
part numbers from it. Remember to unplug the cooker from the gas and electric
before you start to dismantle it. You can't really miss the ignition board. it
should be either in the side wall near the bottom of the cooker, or tucked away
in behind the floor of the oven compartment.

http://www.ger.biz/ might also be able to send you a repaired one if you send
them your broken one.

Have a chat with the power company, you may have grounds for a claim.

Have a chat with the power company, you may have grounds for a claim.

Who will say that as part of their T&Cs for provision of supply they
cannot guarantee continuity of said supply. Some devices are prone to
failure when first powered up, even if using a switch on the socket etc.
Pace satellite systems were renowned for failing like this.

You could always find out if the supply failure was caused by cable
damage, in which case you may have some way of claiming against the guys
who hit it, but in all likelihood, the easiest and quickest way of
resolving it will probably be to claim on your house insurance.
