More Details
This is a genuine oven thermostat probe.
It's the sensor responsible for keeping your oven at just the right temperature. Positioned inside the oven cavity, it constantly monitors the internal heat and sends feedback to the thermostat. This helps regulate the heating elements, ensuring your meals cook evenly without over- or undercooking.
If your oven is overheating, undercooking, or fluctuating wildly in temperature, the sensor could be faulty. Replace it with this part to bring back reliable, even heat.
This thermostat probe for your oven is from Hotpoint. It also fits Indesit and Whirlpool cookers and hobs.
Using our compatibility checker, please check that this part is suitable for your model before you order.
