Oven Not Heating But Fan Running?
When the fan runs but the oven stays cold, the fan motor itself is working — so the fault lies elsewhere. This is one of the most common electric oven faults and usually points to a heating element, thermostat, or control issue.
Common likely causes
- Failed heating element
- Faulty thermostat
- Selector switch fault
- Timer or clock preventing heating
- Wiring fault
- Thermal cut-out triggered
What to do
Do not attempt to open the oven or test components yourself. A qualified engineer can safely diagnose the fault, confirm which part has failed and carry out the repair in one visit where possible.
