Hob ignition

Gas stoves that require an ignition switch to light generate a small amount of electricity to ignite the gas so you can cook your food. Occasionally the ignition switch will stop working, which will prevent your cooker from working properly. Usually, when one ignition switch on your oven fails, they all fail because they are linked. 

When your ignition switch breaks it might be sparking continuously, or not sparking at all. The best course of action to replace your ignition switch is as follows:

  1. Order a replacement ignition switch/spark generator from CookerSpareParts >
  2. Make sure the power and gas supplies are disconnected from your cooker completely.
  3. Remove all the internal oven racks.
  4. Remove the bottom panel & the screws that secure the igniter. 
  5. Disconnect the igniter from the oven and set it aside for disposal.
  6. Without touching the carbide electrode, connect your new igniter to the oven.
  7. Position the igniter so it sits in the same place as the old one.
  8. Re-install the bottom panel and secure everything back down using the screws you removed earlier.
  9. Put your oven rack back into the oven.
  10. Turn the gas and electric supply back on & check your new igniter is working.

If this doesn't resolve the problem we recommend getting in touch with your oven manufacturers. To browse a range of spare parts for your cooker, or to contact us for more help with replacing your ignition switch, click the button below:

Oven in kitchen

You might not notice how often you use the clock on your oven until it stops working. From a quick glance to check you're on time as you leave the house, to setting a timer while your Sunday dinner cooks to prevent under or overcooking, your oven clock plays an important role in your life.

If you do notice that your oven clock has stopped working, there are a few simple steps you can take to diagnose and fix the problem quickly and easily. 

Step One: Identifying the Problem 

Determining what is wrong with your oven is the first step to solving the problem. There are generally two scenarios when your oven clock stops working. Either:

  1. The oven clock and the oven itself has stopped working
  2. The oven clock has stopped working but the rest of the oven works fine

If you can identify whether the fault is localised to the oven clock or if it is a different, more complex cooker fault causing the clock not to work, then you will be in a better position to start repairing it. If you can't identify the problem yourself,  or if the entire oven has stopped working, we recommend speaking to a specialist to help you identify the problem. The manufacturers of your oven are specialists at dealing with faults and repairs of your oven, so try giving them a call first and foremost if you cannot identify the problem easily. 

Step 2: Resolving the Problem

If it is just the clock that has stopped working, you should first check that it doesn't just need to be reset. Find the manual for your cooker, or look one up online, and try to reset your oven clock.

If this doesn't fix the problem then it's likely that there is a physical fault with your oven clock, which means it's probably time to think about replacing or repairing it! That's where we come in. We stock an extensive range of different oven timers, clocks and programmers to get your oven clock working as it used to in no time at all. The best way to browse timers, clocks and programmers for your exact oven is to have the manufacturer details and model number ready. Simply enter these into the site to reveal a selection of replacement parts that perfectly match your oven. 

If you have any difficulties identifying the problem with your oven, or if you'd like help finding the right replacement clock timer or programmer for your oven, don't hesitate to contact a member of our team on 02920 452 510. If you're ready to get your oven clock on the mend, click the button below to browse replacement parts.

My Stoves cooker knobs are melting

If your cooker knobs are melting, it's likely that heat from your oven is escaping from your central oven and heating the cooker knobs, when it shouldn't be.

Luckily, we stock a huge selection of Stoves door seals and gaskets that will help you eliminate this problem. The best way to find the right seal or gasket for your oven is to have your oven's model number to hand before browsing.

Have you recently noticed that your cooker hood is not working? Don't worry, you don't need to be a specialist to diagnose and fix the problem. There are lots of different types of cooker hoods, but they are all made up of roughly the same principal parts. These include:

  • The Control Switch - This is how you operate the cooker hood. There may be different switches that control the fan speed and the light(s).
  • The Motor - This is necessary for the cooker hood to be capable of drawing the air from the kitchen away from your stove.
  • The Bulbs/Sockets - If your cooker hood lights up, it will have light sockets and bulbs to do so.
  • Filter - traps grease and carbon from the extracted air

Diagnosing the problem:

If you've come to this page it's likely that one of these parts has stopped working! Make sure that before you start dismantling your cooker hood you turn off the main power supply.

  • The cooker hood isn't extracting properly - If your cooker hood is struggling when you turn it on, it's likely that the motor is faulty/damaged or the filter/filters need replacing.
  • Cooker lights won't turn on - Cooker hood lights aren't designed to be left on for long periods, if you're someone who likes to have the cooker hood light on it's possible you've fried the electric circuit, damaged the bulb socket or the bulb has blown. Alternatively, the switch could be broken.
