oven repair

[CXR100]

had a email tonight, a new possible customer want a quote or rough idea about fixing a LEISURE BISTRO 55 cooker. she says the flame in the cooker doesn't flare up as she says, hob and grill working fine. what could it be? as the job is 45 miles away I was thinking about taking a part with me. thanks

I thaught it would be the thermostat personally, any advice and where to get one would be great. thanks

If it's the oven that stays on low flame then it's the FSD.

Defo ffd did one Monday £49 cost me.

where can I get one from? can you send me a link?

I'd ring the manufacturer to get the right part number and a price, then have a quick hunt on the web to see what you can find. Take the best price.

45 miles? Wouldn't even consider it! As above fsd

Ye, I don't think I'd fancy driving 45 miles to fix someones greased up oven!

 

[CXR100]

would you drive 45 miles for a combi swap if they fancy one in the future ??.................."what a bout calling that lad that came to fix our cooker to do it" never know!!

 

[wattsie1987]

No way I don't like driving more than 10 miles for a combi swap!

I wish oven manufacturers gave as much info in their manuals as boiler manufacturers do . some cooker parts can be a pig to fit and info is short in supply
