Zanussi ZCI66280XA Cooker Oven Cooling Fan Won't Turn Off
I have a Zanussi ZC166280XA Cooker Oven. To stop the fan the oven has to be turned off at the mains. However once the cooker is turned on again the fan starts up again even if the oven itself is not in use and the appliance is quite cold. After watching your video it seems as if the fan thermostat is faulty and requires renewal. What do you think? Regards, Michael Murphy.

Hi Michael, sorry to hear about the problem with your Zanussi ZCI66280XA Cooker Oven.
A cooling fan that keeps running after your cooker has cooled down is a frustration many people face. You might even find it starts up again the next time you switch on your oven, seemingly of its own accord.
The most likely culprit is a faulty thermostat. This component is responsible for monitoring the temperature inside your cooker and switching the fan off once the temperature drops below approximately 70°C. Keep in mind that the exact temperature threshold can vary depending on your cooker's manufacturer and model.
When a thermostat fails, it loses the ability to sense temperature changes accurately, which means the fan may run continuously or cycle unexpectedly. Replacing this part is usually a straightforward repair and should resolve the issue.
