    OK Mate - thanks for you advice ! I presume my electrician would have a good idea ? - thing is at just over a hundred quid a pop it's almost a consumable nowadays (typically just a few months outside warranty) I'll see what he thinks. Thanks again :)

    Help sourcing a heating element for Lamona oven ?

    If there are 2 does it seem unusual for both to go at once. The tenant said the power had been tripping recently (they've just shoved a huge american freezer in the flat!) - could this have blown them or is the cooker isolated from everything else.

    Vokera Boiler wont power on - what electrical checks ?

    I've just checked that fuse and again it looks fine - will it always be very evident if the fuse has gone ? Time to get a multimeter on the job and see where the power is stopping.

    Please help - Vokera boiler barely working.

    Well he fixed it :):):) The boiler was ok but he cleared a few bits out of it. These two pipes were coked up very badly, it would appear the last plumber who previously looked at the problem moved these around to see if they we blocked and loosed the deposit thus blocking the valve they flowed...
