Hi all. We have a Zanussi single fan oven which came with the house and is approximately 4 years old.
It ovens just fine, but after use the cooling fan (not the main oven fan) continues running and won't switch off even after several hours; it keeps running even after the oven is completely cool. The only remedy is to switch off the power supply to the oven, which loses the clock time.
The model no. is ZOB343X and the production no. is 94406457602.
I was under the impression that the oven cavity temperature is controlled by its own thermostat, and the cooling fan is controlled by a separate thermostat. Looking at the Zanussi website only one thermostat is shown in the exploded diagram, but then two different part numbers are listed for this one thermostat. The accompanying text doesn't help, as it's a generic text along the lines of "thermostats regulate your oven's temperature". One part is a "stirrup thermostat set 140018026165", and the other is an "oven thermostat 3570560056".
Does anyone have any helpful advice on which part I should buy (assuming I can get one delivered)? Obviously I don't want to completely banjax the oven in case we can't get a new one delivered for weeks.
