Please turn caps lock off.

Daft as it sounds, have you tried resetting the clock?

Hi
With it being quite a large combination is the cooker supplied by one circuit or two?
Im thinking it`s two and one MCB/FUSE has tripped.

I don't think it will be that as it is a single appliance and the other oven is still working. I would expect it to be supplied on a single circuit, and if it has gas hob the ovens will probably only be about 10A each.

The clock idea could be right, I know someone with an oven that won't come on if the clock has stopped (e.g. power cut) and not been reset, or of course if the oven timer says "off"

I am also wondering if it has one of those connector blocks with copper links for LH and RH ovens so it can be used in 2-phase supplies in some countries, that might have been loose and eroded. But this would not be the first thing to check. More likely timer or a switch fault.

please describe the switches and outlets on the wall (you might be able to see one or more thick cables coming out of the back, and where they go)

Also in the consumer unit (fuse box) what is there marked "cooker" and what is printed on it (letters and numbers)?

If you are able to put up some digital photos, that could give us some ideas.

Personally I'm thinking appliance fault, not house circuit fault, since half the cooker works.

How old is the cooker, and how old is the kitchen wiring?

Do you ever use the oven timer, and might anyone have fiddled with it?

p.s. does the cooker have the appearance of two ordinary cookers joined together?

One of these? http://www.dixons.co.uk/martprd/product/seo/Cooking/Range+Style+Cookers/FLAVEL/MILANO+1OFRS/008721

It may be an internal fault, could be anything. Do you have the instruction manual? Do you need to set the clock to manual?

There is generally not a fuse inside the appliance. If there was, it would be mentioned in the manual, unless it was part of the electronic controls and not user-servicable.

Provided there is just one cable going into the back, I think it is an appliance fault.
