Hotpoint Oven Thermostat

Senses the oven temperature and cycles the heat to hold the setting.

Signs it has failed

• The oven runs hot or cold compared with the dial
• The oven does not heat at all or never turns off
• Food burning or undercooked at the usual setting
• A dial that feels loose

Check before you buy

• Check the temperature with a separate oven thermometer
• Check the element and fan for faults
• Look at the thermostat bulb or capillary for damage

What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your oven and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).

How to replace it

1. Isolate the oven at the fused spur or breaker
2. Remove the control panel to access the thermostat
3. Release the thermostat bulb or capillary inside the oven
4. Disconnect the wiring and fit the new thermostat
5. Refit the bulb and panel and test

Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.

Getting the right part

Thermostats vary by temperature range and shaft. Match the part number or your model number.

Part numbers listed for Hotpoint oven thermostat

The retailer lists 47 Hotpoint numbers for this part type; 10 are shown, because most fit only specific models. Search with your model number to narrow it down.

Some numbers are used across Hotpoint, Indesit, Creda and other Whirlpool-group brands. Numbers starting C00 are the Hotpoint/Indesit manufacturer reference format. If your old part has a number printed on it, match that first.
