Do you know where your cooker model number is? Before you start browsing our website for cooker spares, we strongly recommend that you make a note of your appliance's model number.

We stock a huge number of parts here at Cooker Spare Parts, and since many of them look very similar to one another, it's a good idea to know exactly what kind of cooker you're trying to fix!

Bottom line: entering your manufacturer name and model number (e.g. Hotpoint DHS53X) when searching the Cooker Spare Parts website will ensure that we only show you parts that are compatible with your cooker.

Unfortunately, cooker manufacturers don't always make their model numbers easy to spot.

To find out your model number, you'll need to find the cooker's data badge. The model number will be included among the infromation on the badge.

A cooker's data badge which contains your cooker model number usually looks something like this:

So where's my cooker model number?

This is the tricky part because your cooker model number's location depends on what type of cooker you own. On most appliances, the data badge can be found in one of the following places:

• Behind the frame of the oven door
• On the side of the oven door
• Behind the flap at the base of the appliance
• On the side of the appliance
• On the back of the appliance

In some cases, you may have to move your cooker away from the wall in order to inspect its cooker model number. However, before you do that, we recommend visiting our Help Centre page and selecting your manufacturer from our drop-down list - this will give you more specific information about how to locate your appliance's model number.

If you're still struggling, give us a call on 02920 452 510 and our cooker experts will be happy to help you out.

I've found my model number! What next?

Now that you've got your cooker model number to hand, simply head to the Cooker Spare Parts homepage and enter your manufacturer name (e.g. Belling) and model number (e.g. DB90) in the boxes provided. We'll then show you a list of compatible parts, and you can either select the item you need from that list or narrow it down further by specifying a part type and/or searching for a specific keyword phrase.

Gas Cooker Hoses from Cooker Spare Parts

There are a number of different gas hoses on the market today, so when it comes to replacing your gas cooker hose, it can all seem rather overwhelming! In this blog post, we will aim to explain to you the different types of gas hose and what they are used for; hopefully, when you come to purchase your replacement gas cooker hose, you will be relatively confident that you have purchased the correct one.

What is a gas cooker hose?

a gas hose is a cylindrical tube that has been designed specifically for carrying gas from one location to another, with as little leakage as possible. Because gas is a very small particle it can leak out of the smallest gaps, so many gas cooker hoses have to be specifically constructed in such away they prevent gas leaks for many years. Many gas hoses are constructed from rubber and different kinds of plastic because these materials have been constructed in such away they are leak resistant. 

Over time gas pipes can become worn and start showing signs of wear and tear, it is then you will have to start thinking about purchasing and fitting a new gas cooker hose.

Different Types of Gas Hoses:

There are 5 types of gas cooker hoses, standard gas hose – natural gas, Standard gas hose – LPG, Microline or micropoint hoses – natural gas, Microline or micropoint hoses – LPG, and catering hoses in LPG and Natural gas.

There are 2 types of gas oven, a gas oven that runs off Natural gas (methane and ethane) and an oven that runs off LPG gas (propane and butane), and each oven requires different gas piping. Natural gas is lighter than LPG gas, so the gas hose has to be manufactured to different standards. Therefore it is important that when you are purchasing a new gas hose you are confident you have the correct one for your appliance. 

Standard Hoses - Natural Gas

If you have a natural gas oven, you will find that there are two different types of hose we stock. A straight bayonet hose, or an angled bayonet hose. These both have a plug-in bayonet socket and a 1/2” BSP tapered male threaded fitting at the other. If you are unsure which hose you need, simply look at the connection of your current Gas Cooker Hose to determine which would be most suitable.

Electric ovens are generally easy to repair because there is not much that goes wrong with them. Repairing an electric oven often just means replacing a part or two, so in the first instance, all you have to do is diagnose which part needs replacing.

That said, if you don't know much about the inner workings of a cooker, it can be a little baffling when your oven breaks. To help you out, we have compiled a list of common faults to help you diagnose the issue with your electric oven and buy the right replacement part. After diagnosing the problem, you'll hopefully be able to understand why your electric oven isn't working and get it back up and running again.

The most common problem

If your electric oven isn't working, the most likely explanation is that the heating element is faulty. The element is the part of the oven that actually heats up, and it's relatively easy to replace.

There's no power reaching my oven.

No power to your cooker can be caused by a number of things:

• Check that the oven is switched on
• If plugged into a socket check that the fuse is still working
• If connected to the mains, check your main fuse board in the house, your electricity may have been interrupted during the day.
• If your oven has a digital timer, it might be stuck in automatic.
• If you have checked all of these possibilities call out an engineer.

My oven has power, but it's not heating up.

Does your oven’s light and fan comes on but doesn’t heat up?

• Check if there is any damage to the element – if this is the case then the element will need replacing, click here to view our extensive range of oven elements.
• If you have checked the element but can see no damage it, check your thermal fuse or thermal switch. If these have gone you can buy a replacement here.

My oven keeps cutting out.

 Your oven cutting out could be caused by two issues:

• The cooling fan might be faulty. If you find you need a replacement part, click here.
• The thermal switch is not working properly.

If your oven overheats and then cuts out, this is likely to be a problem with your thermostat.

My oven door won't close properly.

Having difficulty closing your oven door? Check the hinges and seal:

• Check the hinges have not broken and are still intact
• Check that the hinges have not become misaligned
• Door seals diminish with age and can become loose causing your oven door not to close properly. If this is the case your seal will need replacing, you can view our range of replacement seals here.

IMPORTANT: If you are going to replace a part on your electric oven, please make sure you have completely disconnected the appliance from the mains. Don’t try to replace any part you are not sure about – always call in an expert.
