Hi CG, The thought just crossed my mind that if there is a "high demand" for this 'ere bit of wire, maybe the original one was a piece of C----- and I,d be calling the manufacturer and asking for a rebate. lol

He just rang me and said he is having a problem getting the part as there is a high demand and will call me back tomorrow. I haven't agreed to let him do it yeat I said I want to know the full price tomorrow.

Likely it is the igniter.

Don't be put off by how hard it is - that's his job isn't it? All in cost of £70 doesn't sound unreasonable these days, but check that's what it is you have been quoted, all in.

To put the oven on I push the knob and turn it keeping it pushed in while I light it with a match keeping it pressed in once lit for a few seconds and when I let the knob go it is then lit. Now when I let go the flame and gas go off?
About the wire I don't know and not being rude he was Scottish and I find that accent very hard to follow.

His call out fee is probably high with that and the part, it doesn't sound bad.

Mind you I live in the south where everything is expensive........alright if you are rich!!

Just had a guy here to look at my oven and be went on that it was a terrible job to do, has to take it apart to thread a wire into the bit were the gas comes out. He may have to order it from Bristol I live in Liverpool. Appox £70 plus. Cooker isn't even three years old yet and cost around £200. Is this a reasonable price?
