My question is , I've got a kenwood cooker model ck780 will anyone know why my cooling fan comes on all the time the cooker is running , it's only just started doing it , any help would be appreciated Thanks graeme
Does it have a cooling Fan? Is it just not the fan for the fan oven? Maybe I am wrong but this fan is just for distributing the hot air throughout the oven.
It's the cooling fan , it's coming on straight away when I turn my cooker on at the wall without the oven or hobs on
I don't know what went wrong there but you can read it. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/86311/Kenwood-Ck-780.html
I see from the instructions that there is a fan only facility (without heat) . Is this the fan that stays on all the time?
If I disconnect this fuse it doesn't come on ,but I'm not sure if it's ok to do this , it's just the fan is very noisy
Well I have read the manual. It is a lot more sophisticated than ours. I have no knowledge of this model. It is a rotary switch that controls the fan. I cannot see how this can fail in itself unless there is a thermostat involved or a relay that has stuck closed or it is controlled by a electronic chip. It might be a be a timer chip that has failed. For God's sake do not disconnect any fuses. How old is it? : I presume it is out of warranty. Sorry I cannot help your further but at least anybody else now has the manual to examine.
Ok I wasn't going to disconnect it anyway , just strange that when I do it solved the fan not coming on but valid point on your behalf thanks I'll have to do some further investigations , cheers for your help
It could be a stuck contact. With the cooker OFF, rotate the switch which controls the oven function several times in each direction.
