Beko BBIM14300BC Oven Not Reaching Temperature
Hi I have a beko BBIM14300BC oven and it doesn’t seem to be getting as hot as it should be. I used it last night with the thermostat set to 200’c and the function selector set to fan assisted bottom/top heating. The oven heated up but not not to the required temp. When the thermostat was turned the temperature symbol went out at about 140’c.Do you think this is a thermostat or heater element issue.
I will try and help with this problem about Beko BBIM14300BC Oven,
Hi Phil,
Sorry to hear about the problem with your Beko oven. You mentioned turning the selector switch to the function for the top and bottom elements working with the fan motor. Your Beko BB IM14300BC fan oven has three elements: a base element, a grill element, and a fan oven element. These all work with the fan motor. The selector switch turns on the required element for cooking.
From what you're describing, it sounds like one of the elements is faulty since it's not reaching temperature. The usual culprit is the base element. I've got some videos to show you how to test and replace these elements. Additionally, I have the workshop manual, which is 83 pages long. It will show you how to dismantle the whole machine to access every component, including the cooling fan and all the electrics.
Although my videos cover this as well, having a hard copy might be useful. At the bottom of the page, you'll find exploded diagrams with numbers that match up to any components on your cooker. I hope this information helps you. Thanks for contacting us and good luck with your repair.
In the video, I mentioned about 5 common problems.;
- Oven will not heat because the element is faulty.
- Oven won't heat because timer on manual.
- Oven won't heat because of a fault with thermostat or selector switch.
- Oven not cooking evenly (one element faulty or fan not working correctly).
- Oven not reaching temperature normally an element but possible fan motor.
Common Problems with Electrical Ovens
- The oven will not turn on
The first thing you need to check is that the oven timer is not on auto if it is, turn it on to manual.
- No Heat in Oven
If the fan is running and the thermostat light comes on but you get no heat (or just the thermostat light on in non-fan ovens and cookers) then the probability is that the fan element or oven elements have failed.
- Electricity trips (Rcd) when I turn the oven on or grill
This is normally an element that has gone to earth, This is a well-known fault with electric ovens, the insulation breaks down in the elements and trips the RCD , best way is to stick a meter on each element and check that they have not got earth leaks on them. But this can also be a wiring fault.
- The grill element doesn't work
This would usually indicate that the grill element is faulty. Check these: Grill element, Oven changeover switch, Overheat thermostat, Main oven thermostat, if used to regulate the grill temperature.
- The oven fan is not working or spinning correctly (slow) or is noisy
The fan motor may need to be replaced see video on this also the cooling fan motor can cause same problems.
- The oven overheats and burns everything
Normally this is a simple thermostat failure which would manifest itself as this symptom.
- The oven or cooker cuts out after it's been on for a while
This is an overheating problem which can be caused by the fan motor or main oven thermostat or a faulty safety thermostat that will be causing the problem. It can also be caused by a failure of the cooling fan, where fitted, but usually these go noisy before failing, Safety thermostats are used to prevent the oven or cooker overheating and will shut the oven down.
