My first job tomorrow morning is to work out why the spark ignition on our Truma oven has stopped working. The hob and grill are fine it's just the oven and it was working yesterday in Peterborough but today in Yorkshire it doesn't. Does anybody have any ideas or pointers on what to look for?

regards, Brian.

Very possible that it is a lead off the igniter which may be in the bottom compartment of the cooker if it is full height or the cupboard under the cooker if is is a 3/4 size one

Beats me, I don't have much to do with ovens! I didn't even know Truma made them?!

They took over Spinflo at some stage in the last 12 months or so

after posting I suddenly thought - that was Thetford wasn't it - or was it?

That's probably because they don't. Having looked at the manual properly it's actually a Spinflo Midi Prima. Sorry about that, blame advancing years and parallax error.

It's the T that does it as I said look for the electronic igniter possibly somewhere where it can get knocked in the cupboard underneath (mine is on the left as you look at the cooker) - it's about 3" square and 1" thick and should have 6 white wires coming out of it and a black and red wire as well

Thanks all. Having stuck my head under the cooker I have found a grey wire hanging and having felt the back of the wire spark probe I can feel whiskers so I presume it's pulled off. A job for when we get home and matches in the meantime.

Phew! that was worrying but Thetford own Spinflo and Truma getting their hands on Thetford would be a bit of a miracle.
That's Thetford USA not Suffolk! and a big outfit by any standards, in the USA the Fridges are known as Norcold.
