My NEFF U1721N0GB/02 fan oven element needs replacing. There are three screws holding it. Two are visible, the third is hiding behind the fan. The nut in the centre of the fan seems stuck. It isn't a left-hand thread or anything is it? I don't want to force it.
 
Aha! It is a left-hand thread. I was tightening the nut instead of loosening it.

Now, any tips on how to get the fan off the spindle? It seems to be corroded onto it.
 
Spray WD40 or similar on the shaft and grip the end of the shaft and keep spinning the fan until it becomes loose enough to pull off.
 
Thanks for that. Pity the oven is a low-level one. It is hard to think straight when you are scrabbling around on the floor with your weight on your elbows and head in the oven :-)
 
That semi circular element with the hidden screw is only fitted on those floor level ovens.
