Create Stock Alert. Item Information Genuine spare part suitable for selected Cannon and Hotpoint cookers and ovens. Hotpoint 1 C60ETX. Wd40 is a bodge. It won't last, the wd40 will evaporate away any other lubricant you try will only solve the issue temporarily Fan elements do burn out but based on the information you have given, in your case the element will have burnt out prematurely due to the poor performance from the stir fan which dissipates heat away from the element so the element doesn't get to hot.
I would strongly advise you replace then stir fan motor when you replace the element. If you don't your element may last a few months or even a year, but it will burn out prematurely again. Stir fan bearings tend to be the phosphor bronze type or a cheaper version of it. They are not ball bearing types. It should spin a bit freely not as much as a bicycle wheel which uses ball bearings.
But you have stated previously approximarely 2rpm on the odd occasion. It should spin pretty fast as in you cannot count thr rpms at all every time all of the time. Update, sorry it took me so long to come back on here but had to get my wife to give it a real test to be sure of everything. I ordered the new circular W element and while that was on its way decided to completely remove the fan and see what I could find.
I cleaned it up and lubricated it and in the end I did get it spinning like a bicycle wheel, ie one push and it spun for a while, which was a big improvement on before so I am sure that will improve things although I will keep an eye on it for a month or 2 as I want to see if it starts slowing again.
I dont want it to slow and cause the element to blow again. It was tempting to replace it but I got it going so well I thought I'd wait and see, hopefully I made the right decision. The only annoyance to taking the fan out was that it had a heat resistant sheet between it and the oven casing and this had cracked into 3 and so was a nightmare to refit, I would have put new if I had something similar but I couldnt find anything similar to cut to size, and I couldnt find it as a part to order so I assume it comes with the fan.
Anyway I got it all back and it seems to be working great again thankfully. Anyway thank you guys for all the help and guidance. Don't worry about the white sheet behind the fan, these always disentigrate when you remove the fan.
I have refitted new fans without these sheets and have never been recalled to them for any issues. You will need a new fan at some point though. When your element starts going within 12 months then you will defintely need a new fan. The other thing is to ensure the oven door seal is in good condition and the doors seals against the oven cavity, you can check this with a strip of newspaper.
Trap the paper when you close the door on it and check for resistance when you pull the strip of newspaper, if there no resistance and the paper pulls out easily the oven will, be losing heat.
