Smeg / Electric oven / BR2
The grill has stopped working
Specify the grill function and whether the same cavity still works on another ordinary oven setting. Include any light, fan or display change. Do not handle a heating element or remove panels to look for damage. A grill-only failure needs its own description rather than being grouped with every no-heat complaint.
Compare this observation: the display works but cooking will not start
Record any lock, clock or programme symbol alongside the chosen cooking function. Mention whether this followed a power interruption. Use only the normal user settings explained for the model; avoid assuming the clock is the cause. The display being lit does not establish that the remaining controls or heating system are sound.
The symptom followed other work.
State what changed and when the problem began, without assigning a cause from timing alone. Include any moved cabinet, connection or supply arrangement.
For the Hayes address
Specify Hayes in Bromley, Kent, with the complete BR2 postcode. This avoids confusing the address with other places named Hayes.
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 useful question for the enquiry
Does “the grill has stopped working” establish the failed part?
No. Describe that observation separately from “the display works but cooking will not start”. Explain whether they began together or at different times, and include the fitting detail: the symptom followed other work. The inspection can then consider the symptoms and safe access together.
