An oven that keeps turning off during use can ruin meals and is frustrating to deal with. The most common causes are:
- Overheating / thermal cut-out: A safety device cuts the power when the oven overheats. This can be triggered by a blocked vent or a faulty cooling fan. Cost to repair: £80–£140.
- Faulty temperature sensor: If the sensor reads too high, the oven thinks it's overheated and shuts off. Cost: £80–£120.
- Control board fault: An intermittent fault on the control board. Cost: £130–£220.
- Loose wiring: A loose connection that fails when hot. Requires an engineer to diagnose. Cost: £80–£140.
