An oven door that does not close properly can be caused by faulty hinges and this can make it difficult to maintain a consistent temperature for baking or cooking food.  Oven door hinges or springs get a lot of use and can become tired, bend or break.  This can mean your oven door drops open, will not stay in an upright position and is out of alignment or that the door ends up with a gap around the edges rather than forming a good seal.  Although it is possible to continue using the oven it is not particularly energy efficient to keep using your oven with faulty hinges.  When the hinges are damaged it can also mean the internal tracks that hold the hinges need to be replaced.
Before you start planning to cook your Christmas turkey it is wise to check and make sure your oven door is closing properly.  If you have an oven door not closing or aligning correctly then it would be best to book in a service now.  Don’t wait until the turkey is defrosting …. only 10 days to go!

If an oven appears to be on strike and is not heating up at all there are a couple of quick checks you should do to determine where the fault may be coming from.  First it is best to check your fuse box to make sure that the fuse has not been tripped.  If your oven display is working but the oven will not heat up it could be caused by the auto function or self-cleaning mode.

Check carefully that the oven clock has not been bumped off the manual setting and reset it if you find the auto function selected.  If you have a self-cleaning mode on your oven then read the instruction manual for your oven on how to revert it back to a normal cooking mode.  Most ovens are fairly simple to reset back so that they will function correctly.

If you have an oven not heating up and the cooking mode is set correctly then you should seek help from a registered electrical technician.  NZ regulations specify that repair work on an oven should always be performed by qualified and registered electrical technicians.  If you have an issue with your oven please contact us for professional help from our team of registered electrical technicians.
