Default Oven not working

I went to make my dinner last night & noticed that my main oven wasnt heating up, light was on & fan was on.
Its a two piece thingy so just fired my oven junk in the top oven.

Does anyone have any ideas on what has went wrong ? & what to check ?

I dont want to go buy a new one as i move out in a couple of weeks

Think is just out of warranty & its one of those beiling jobbies.

Cheers

Only thing I can suggest is

Check timer and clock settings
Reseat the element
Test the element connectors
Test the oven temperature control
Test the oven selector control
Buy a new oven

Heating element has failed. If you do an internet search for domestic appliance spares you should be able to source one for about £20.

Fully disconnect cooker and unscrew plate at back from inside the oven and you'll find the fan and heating element, usually a 2 or 3 coil circular thing. Just unscrew the mountings and pull off the connectors and you've got it out. With the oven model no off the name plate and the element in your hand you should be able to match it as most spares places post pictures of the elements.

Check that your wife hasn't died. Other clues are that the pile of dirty clothes gets bigger, and that whining sound goes away
