FAQs

How do I know if my element is broken?

If the oven fan turns on but the temperature does not rise, or if you can see a physical break in the metal coil, the element is faulty.

Is this a genuine Hotpoint part?

This is a SPARES2GO branded replacement element, manufactured to be compatible with the specified Hotpoint models.

Do I need special tools for this installation?

Typically, you only need a screwdriver (often a Phillips or Torx head) to remove the oven panels and the element retaining screws.

What should I do if the terminals are tight?

Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to gently grasp the wire connectors. Avoid pulling on the wires themselves to prevent damaging the insulation.

Can I use this in an oven not listed as BD31, BD32, or BD42?

Only if your oven specifically calls for this 2500W, 235mm diameter, 2-turn element. Please check your appliance's technical manual or data plate first.

Troubleshooting

Oven fan is running but not heating up

The element has likely burnt out. Check for visible breaks or blisters on the element and replace if found.

Oven trips the circuit breaker

This often indicates an earth fault caused by a damaged or shorted element. Inspect for insulation failure.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Restores original heating performance to aging ovens
  • Easy to install for those with basic appliance repair experience
  • Compatible with common Hotpoint oven series

  • Requires manual installation which may void specific warranties

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning installation, you must disconnect the oven from the mains power supply to prevent electrical shock.

  1. Compatibility Check: Verify your oven model number matches the BD31, BD32, or BD42 series requirements.
  2. Accessing the Element: Remove the inner oven back panel by unscrewing the retaining screws inside the oven cavity.
  3. Disconnecting: Carefully pull the old element forward to reveal the spade terminals. Note which wire connects to which terminal.
  4. Installation: Attach the wires to the new element terminals and screw the element back into the rear wall mounting holes.
  5. Maintenance: To prolong the life of the new element, avoid splashing water or acidic cleaners directly on it during regular oven cleaning. Periodic inspection of the element for signs of bulging or breaks can help you identify potential failures before they occur.
