    Hi!
    I own an oven bought some time ago in Ikea (I learned from the Ikea hotline that the manufacturer is Whirlpool). I have attached a photo with something like the rating plate. The oven designation is - FXZM6.

    In short, the oven simply heats non-stop. There is a diode on the front that indicates that the oven has warmed up to the desired temperature. It never goes out and the temperature in the oven rises to the point where the oven simply turns off overheating and the front panel cannot be touched (I don't know if there is any additional sensor responsible for switching off). I did not check the temperature with a thermometer, but it probably reaches 250 degrees C or more. This happens regardless of the set temperature and mode - top / bottom heater, hot air. Every time the same. For example, I will set 100 ° C and top / bottom heater. The oven heats until it stops. Hot air set to 200 degrees - heats again fully.

    I suspect something is happening to the thermostat. It's hard to say anything without a device diagram.

    Maybe someone had a similar problem. Thanks in advance for your help.

    What a lot to write a broken thermostat does not turn off at a certain temperature. I once had a replacement in a similar Ikea, I matched something typical from the market with similar parameters, you need to look at how the front and length of the capillary are attached and choose something typical.

    Okay. So undress and try to pick something similar.

    When I get inside I throw in a photo of the thermostat, which would make sure that I ordered a good one.

    Where to look for him? Is there any typical place where they are mounted?

    The knob is at the front but the pressure hose goes back and often through the hole at the top goes into the oven the capillary is typically mounted the top left can be checked in the oven.

    Hi,
    This is how it looks.
    The capillary length is ~ 160mm. The thermostat itself as seen in the attached pictures.

    It's just a detector; the capillary is about 900mm. 81381292 you may need to turn 180 ° so that the dial shows correctly.

    Hi,
    I bought the Amica thermostat (mentioned above).
    The thermostat itself fits 1: 1. Nothing needs to be changed. After the initial tests, everything seems to be okay.

    Thank you for the advice :) .
