Cooker circuit problem

[varilite]

I was asked to look at a job late yesterday where double oven has stopped working so called out an oven engineer to look at it and he said nothing wrong with oven there is no power from cooker switch. I had a look and there is power leaving c/u but not arriving at switch. Customer did complain of an electrical burning smell coming from oven but I could neither see or smell evidence of this. Cannot see how the cable is routed he said it was done when kitchen extension was built 20 years ago, having taken plinths off units can see all manner of dodgy wiring so my concern is that thre maybe an inaccessible high resistance joint in the cable that has burnt. But then why would it take this long to manifest itself? Any other theories?

serves you right for drinking tea. disgusting stuff. have you seen the inside of a teapot? that's what your stomach lining will be like.

When diagnosed with cirrhosis I actually got to see the inside of my stomach.
I was terrified of the camera down the throat, once in I was fascinated by the pictures on the PC screen. It’s all pink and squidgy!

I wish I’d got the consultant to send me a copy.

Imagine a pub quiz, "what’s this?"

This is a problem that can't be solved on a forum the joint could be anywhere but I would guess that the circuit could have been extended from the old cooker switch then plastered over but the only way to know that the job is done right is to rewire it.

Glenn knows me, you don't yet. Glenn and I have been friends for quite some time, never met yet but this year should change that.

I can switch from Pink and Squidgy to a Snot Gobbling Green Monster in the blink of an eye.

Not quite sure how to answer that....the picture in my head of you two being pink and squidgy is very "Stephen King"

I'm not going to ask how you made the leap from you two being pink and squidgy to Alien Robots....one too many shocks?

Is there a bad wiring, a JB tucked away somewhere. so here you can use new fangled thermometer cameras. you may find it helpful.
