Trying to light the oven on a very soggy weekend at Banham Zoo, realised that nothing was happening. Realised I had left the rack on bottom of oven and it was shorting the igniter.
1. Don't try to remove said rack whilst still holding in igniter button as it will result in severe shock to hand and profound swearing (grandkids learnt a few new words)
2. Fuse covering oven igniter also covers hob and fridge and it wasn't,t till home next day when unloading, realised fridge was off and all defrosting.
3. If you do happen to repeat this, use ice to sooth hand as it will have melted by the time you get home!
Ahh the joys of camping
