Your thermostat is responsible for controlling the temperature of your oven. If you find that your food is over or undercooked after setting the temperature correctly there's a chance that your thermostat is faulty. That's right, maybe it isn't your cooking skills, it's the thermostat. Then again, it might be you... so that's why we are here to explain how to test your oven thermostat!
Use a multimeter
- Unplug the oven from the wall - the last thing you want is to add electrocution to your problems.
- Depending on your oven type, the thermostat could be located behind the back panel, beneath the backsplash, under the exhaust hood or below the control panel. The thermostat is a thin piece of metal usually attached to a coil of wire.
- If you then remove the thermostat from the oven, you can use a multimeter to test it.
- Make sure the multimeter is calibrated and then turn the dial to the lowest ohm rating.
- Place the multimeter on the thermostat. If the thermostat has a reading of zero or as close to zero as possible, it is working fine. However, if it has no reading at all, your oven thermostat is faulty and will need replacing.
Use an oven thermometer
Depending on the type of cooker you own, it may be possible for you to recalibrate your thermostat by measuring the actual temperature in your oven manually (using an oven thermometer) and adjusting the thermostat as needed. If the temperature you set your oven to does not match that of the thermometer, you know it is faulty. To get an oven thermometer, click here.

Gas oven not working? Don't worry - we have plenty of replacement parts that will fix the problem in no time.
Despite using your oven every day, it probably still feels like a complete mystery to you! When something goes wrong with your appliance it may seem daunting to try and work out what's going wrong - but it really doesn't need to be that difficult! Below are some of the parts we supply and what they do, this should help you work out which part you need to replace if your gas oven is not working!
If you want your food to get cooked, you need a working oven burner. To make sure a gas cooker can heat up your food, you need the lighter to ignite. This happens when you turn on your oven, as you are effectively lighting the burner. If your oven burner is faulty you'll be wanting to replace is as soon as possible, so to find a replacement, click here.
If your oven relies on electric ignitions, a spark/ignition generator will light the gas that allows your oven to work. It will generate a spark that ignites the natural gas that fuels your oven. We have plenty of replacements for this if your gas oven isn't working! Click here to see this specific part.

If your gas oven doesn't rely on an electric ignition, it will use a flame failure device/ thermocouple. This part creates a constant pilot flame. The natural gas will flow through the oven where the gas is then ignited by the pilot flame. If it has stopped working the gas can't ignite, and you can't cook your food, the true misery of your gas oven not working! Click here to replace it.
In order for a gas oven to reach the temperature you select, a working thermostat needs to be in place. Without a working thermostat your food will be over or undercooked, so you should replace it quickly. To find the appropriate replacement part, click here.
