The main heating unit might need to be replaced due o thermodynamic wear out and consquent shortcut. Repair is easy, all you need is a Phillis screwdriver. Get the replacement from any good "Repuerstos Electrodomesticos" shop.

I am not keen on doing this myself, do you know an appliance engineer?

I have had a similar problem with a new oven. One specialist quoted damp in the oven thermostat and wanted €133.00 for a replacement.

Another friend said check your electricity bill and find your charge rate.
Mine is 3.45 kw.

Apparently this was set years ago and is not high enough for today’s ovens which have a higher specification.

I am applying to Iberdrola to have it increased.
