Oven repairs at your place
An oven that will not heat, or cooks one side of the tray and not the other, makes every dinner harder. Kobe comes to your home to find the fault and repair it.
He works on electric wall ovens and freestanding ovens across Brisbane Northside and the Redlands. Brands include Miele, Fisher & Paykel, Electrolux and Bosch.
Anything involving gas or fixed wiring needs a licensed gas fitter or electrician. Kobe will tell you if your problem falls into that category.

Common oven faults Kobe fixes
Oven not heating
A failed bake or grill element, a faulty thermostat or temperature sensor or a control board problem are the common causes. Kobe tests each part and replaces the one that has failed.
Runs too hot or too cold
A temperature sensor that has drifted or failed, or a faulty thermostat, will throw the temperature off. Kobe tests the sensor and the controls and replaces the faulty part.
Fan not working or noisy
A worn fan motor or a loose fan blade causes rattling or a dead fan, and uneven cooking with it. Kobe checks the motor and the fan element and replaces what has failed.
Grill not working
The grill has its own element and often its own switch. Kobe tests both and replaces the faulty one.
Door won't close or seal
Worn hinges and damaged door seals let heat escape and make cooking uneven. Kobe replaces hinges and seals so the door closes properly.
Controls, clock or light not working
Touch panels, knobs and clocks can fail from age, heat or moisture, and some ovens will not heat until the clock is set. Kobe checks the controls and replaces the faulty part where one is available.
Quick checks before you book
These are safe to try and sometimes save you a call-out.
- Check the oven has power at the wall or the switch for that appliance.
- Check the control lock or child lock has not been turned on.
- Make sure the clock and timer are not set to a program that blocks cooking.
- Write down any error code and the model number from the sticker or rating plate.
- Anything involving gas or fixed wiring is for a licensed gas fitter or electrician. Do not open panels or touch wiring yourself.

Questions people ask
Why won't my oven heat up?
A failed element, thermostat or sensor is the usual cause. Kobe tests the parts to find which one has failed before replacing anything.
Do you repair gas ovens?
Gas work needs a licensed gas fitter. If you smell gas, turn off the supply, open windows and call your gas supplier or emergency services. Kobe focuses on electric ovens.
Do you install new ovens?
No. Bluewaves repairs ovens but does not do installations. Your retailer, a licensed electrician or a gas fitter can install a new one.
Do you come to my home?
Yes. Kobe repairs ovens at your place across Brisbane Northside and the Redlands.
