What does the oven thermostat do?
The thermostat plays an important role in the operation of your cooker or oven. The thermostat is responsible for regulating the temperature of the oven. Thermostats will usually be located inside the oven and they have a capillary tube, or "phial" as it can be known, with a probe containing a gas. The gas inside the capillary tube expands and contracts in accordance with the oven temperature, which in turns switches the thermostat on/off to maintain the selected temperature.

Is a faulty thermostat causing the problem?
The thermostat may be a factor in your cooker failure if you are experiencing any of the following:

o    The oven overheats and burns everything
o    The oven is failing to reach the required temperature
o    The oven element keeps blowing
o    The oven cuts out after it has been on for a while
*Remember that although a failed thermostat is a likely cause of the above faults, it is not the only possible explanation.
