Repair guidance / AEG / BR1
One cavity works and the other fails
For a double oven, keep the upper and lower cavity observations separate. Tell us whether the affected cavity has a working light, fan and display. This avoids turning one function fault into an inaccurate description of a completely dead cooker.
A different pattern: the oven overheats
Report the chosen setting and what makes you think the temperature is excessive, such as food burning much sooner on a familiar recipe. Stop use if heating is uncontrolled. Do not alter internal thermostats or continue cooking to test a suspected control failure.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this AEG model
Include the product number (PNC) from the rating label if it is safely accessible.
Bromley and the full address
Send the full postcode and entry details with the Bromley address. If the equipment is in a flat, describe the route from the entrance to the room. Address and access are checked before a Monday–Thursday appointment is confirmed.
Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “one cavity works and the other fails”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “one cavity works and the other fails”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the oven overheats”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Bromley postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the oven overheats” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
