Zanussi Replacement Elements

If your Zanussi cooker is no longer heating up, it may be because you need to replace the oven element. Fortunately, this task is nowhere near as difficult as you might expect, and even if you've never attempted to repair a cooker before, you're probably more than capable of getting it done. Read on for expert advice from the Cooker Spare Parts team - your trusty Zanussi appliance will be up and running again before you know it!

How to Order a Zanussi Oven Element:


It's very easy to find and purchase the right element for your Zanussi oven here at Cooker Spare parts, but first, you'll need to find out your cooker's model number (e.g. ZOB551X). This information can be found on the data badge, which is usually located behind the oven door on Zanussi appliances.

Once you've written down the model number, head over to the Cooker Spare Parts homepage, enter your manufacturer and model number, and click 'Search Parts'. We will then show you a full list of the parts that are compatible with your cooker.

Alternatively, if you already know exactly which element you need, you can head straight to our Zanussi oven elements page and simply select the one you wish to purchase. Either way, our secure and straightforward online checkout system will allow you to place your order in just a few clicks.

How to Install Your New Zanussi Oven Element:


Once your new element has arrived, replacing your broken element is a fairly simple task. The exact method may vary depending on which Zanussi cooker you own, but here's a rough guide on how to replace your Zanussi oven element:

  • Ensure that your cooker is switched off at the wall.

  • Open the oven door, remove the shelves, and take off the panel at the back of the oven to access the space where the element is housed. You may need to unscrew the panel with a screwdriver before you can remove it.

  • The broken element should be held in with screws, so pick up your screwdriver again and take these out so that you can remove it.

  • You will also need to gently pull the wires out of the broken element - be sure to take a photo beforehand in case you forget which wire goes where!

  • Take your new element and connect the wires that you just removed from the old one (refer to the photograph you took if you can't remember where each one goes).

  • Screw the element back into place, then screw the back panel on and put your oven shelves back in.

  • Dispose of the broken element (preferably by recycling it).
