CDA SC222 oven - element and fan stopped working

[animalmagic84]

Hi,

A couple of days ago, I was using my CDA oven when the electricity tripped a couple of times. It was the oven that caused this as whilst it will switch on and the little pilot light shows, it no longer produces any heat. The grill still seems to be working though.

The fan also appears to have stopped working too (as well as the element).

My question is, if we replace the element (which I assume is what has gone after some googling), could this also fix the fan (i.e. is it possible that they both run on the same circuit, so the element going also means that it stopped the fan too).

I don't want to spend money on a new element if it is the fan too (as we may just get a brand new oven instead).

Thanks

Fan and element are separate items, the only way they would both stop working simultaneously is if the switch had failed.
A much more likely situation is that the fan failed first and caused the element to overheat and fail.
