    It’s a easy fix, and the parts are readily available for about £30 on the net. Don’t you fancy having a go yourself?

    Is it true that if you Google JamDrop and multimeter you break the internet?

    It's so easy even a goat can do it.

    Tip. After disconnecting the power supply, removing the cover inside the back of the oven, unscrewing the element's holding screw, easing the element forward and then disconnecting the wires that feed it...

    Don't let the wires fall back through the hole and into the back of the cooker! There might not be much wire to play with and it can be tricky getting them out again.

    I'm sure you won't do that though. Only stupid people do stuff like that. And goats. :)

    Love how you talk about changing shock absorbers like it's an every day thing. Most folk wouldn't know where to start. Me included.

    It’s surprising simple, so long as the last person to fit them didn’t over tighten it!

    I managed to fuse out my flat when it tried it.

    Then I realised the thermostat was the issue.
