Pull out the stove from the wall.... take new electric drill and spin it a few times laughing wildly, take off the back of the stove....
AFTER the pretty blue smoke clears unplug the stove, and begin quick and easy repair....... :eek:
#1) Check where the back of stove touched wires.
#2) Check again that the stove is unplugged!!!!
#3) Wipe off black carbon from around wires, follow wires to fuses.
#4) Check fuses (did you check to see if stove was unplugged?)
#5) Take fuses out, you can bet they're fried!
#6) Replace fuses, and charred wires.
If this happens around garbage clean-up week you may be in luck and find a stove to scavenge the wires and fuses from like I did......
To prevent this from ever happening again do not clean stove!!!
Hope this has been some help to you people!!
