Oven Elements - AGA RANGEMASTER eR7 Field Service Manual

Oven elements:

The oven elements in the Aga Er7 are all rated at 2.5 kw (2500 watts) so they all have the same part
number, the roasting and baking oven have two elements located in the roof and base of the oven
whereas the simmer oven has one element located in the base, the simmer oven element although
the same type of element only operates at 50% of its power rating this is pre-programmed within
the PCB. The oven elements are held in position by 2 allen type screws, one at the front and one at
the rear. The elements can be removed by removing the screws, lifting and propping the element
and then disconnecting the electric connections and lifting the element out of the oven cavity, when
removing the top oven elements care must be taken so they do not drop down into the oven and
when replacing the top oven element, a car jack or similar can be used to hold the element in
position whilst locating the threads for the screws.
When exchanging or inspecting an oven element if the cable is damaged a new cable will need to be
fitted, the cables are routed from the element, and then drop down in the back of the cooker and
run to the main PCB.
The resistance of the elements will be approx. 18 – 22 ohms.
