Hi

Our caravan has a Maxol Monte Carlo 2000 oven which does not heat up properly.  It's ok to warm things through but does not get hot enough to cook with.  Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks

What size of flame are you getting.  It sounds like you are not getting a full flame/flow of gas.  could be a duf thermostat in the oven.  Ours went the other way, it would burn most things.  Dealer swapped it, a right pain by all accounts.

Hi

We have same problem takes ages for anything to cook and then it still not done properly.  Might get it looked at next time van goes in.  I'm still waiting for my dinner when friends have eaten theirs and we started cooking at same time.

 there have been threads here before about said ovens, from memory i think the remadies were either clean burner, check thermostat or make sure that the supply gas pipe isnt clogged with sludge. there is always the obvious "is the gas bottal full". we got had on that one a little while back...
