After a few minutes the knob gets too hot to holfd<60c

I'm adding an extractor fan to a bathroom in a 4th floor flat.
The builder has helpfully cored a hole for me (110mm)
In the past I've used the Manrose Internal fit wall kit which works brilliantly IF you know in advance and core a 117mm hole...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me, I'm trying to work out which two of these three microswitch tabs to use. I have a Hotpoint Hug52 oven and the grill won't stay lit. I checked the thermocouple and it looked in a poor state so I have installed a new one. I took a photo of the wires on...
Hello
So I was baking some bread in the beko 562 oven when suddenly one shard of glass fell onto the plate. Then another. Any idea what these are for and should I be concerned? The glass came from the grill element hole, on the backend of the oven ceiling.
