Rangemaster / Electric hob / BR1
Touch controls do not respond
Describe whether the controls are dark, locked or lit but unresponsive. Include any symbol shown and whether the surface was recently cleaned or affected by a spill. Follow only the normal user-lock instructions for the model. Do not spray liquid into controls or infer a failed circuit board from touch behaviour alone.
Compare this observation: the supply protection operates
Leave the hob out of use after electrical protection operates. Explain whether the event followed switching on, a change of setting or normal cooking. Do not repeatedly reset the circuit or bypass a protective device. The timing and equipment details help prepare a professional assessment without risking another trial.
The equipment shares its position.
Tell us about stacked equipment, neighbouring cupboards or other fittings that limit access. A visible connection is not an invitation to loosen it.
For the Bromley address
For a Bromley address, include the full BR1 postcode and entry arrangements. The district alone does not identify the property or confirm the visit.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.
A manufacturer reference checked on 2026-10-26. Model identity does not confirm parts, stock or repair acceptance.
A useful question for the enquiry
Does “touch controls do not respond” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the supply protection operates”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the equipment shares its position. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
