Repair guidance / Whirlpool / BR6
The protective device trips during heating
Stop using the oven and tell us whether the trip occurs immediately or after it has warmed. Record the selected function without repeatedly reproducing the fault. A tripping protective device must not be bypassed or repeatedly reset to keep the appliance operating.
A different pattern: the fan runs but the oven stays cold
Specify the selected function and which cavity is affected. A rotating fan does not confirm that the heating circuit is working, and a cold result does not identify the failed part. Record whether another normal cooking function behaves differently without opening any panels.
A fault noticed after other work
Describe what was moved or changed and when the symptom first appeared. Keep that sequence factual; timing alone does not establish who caused the fault or which component has failed. Mention any work around the supply, waste or cabinetry.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “the protective device trips during heating”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “the protective device trips during heating”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the fan runs but the oven stays cold”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Orpington postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the fan runs but the oven stays cold” 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 fault noticed after other work — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
