I have just wired up a hob to the old cooker unit plate using 6mm wire. Only the back two rings are working. Why?
Thank for any help.

It is nothing to do with the 6mm cable - is it a split phase cooker? (i.e. was there a second live terminal?) If so that needs linking in to the supply too, sometimes there is a link in the bag of giblets, sometiles an offcut of wire is needed.
Otherwise its a fault in the hob itself.
 
The oven has only one connection for the wires from the cooker outlet plate. Still not working.

obviously its getting power to the cooker otherwise the back rings wouldnt work. double check there are no live connections on the cooker what arent connected. if there is, connect it. if not then it sounds as tho the cooker is faulty
 
Can you get access to the internal connections to each ring, and check the resistance of the non-working ones?
