Trouble removing probe from Neff B1451N0GB/01

I am able to remove the thermostat except for the end of the probe in the back of the oven, the end of which seems to be attached by some kind of pin (like a screw without a head). There is nothing on the other side of it. I can't work out how to detach the probe. I am a bit concerned because this replacement is quite different from the one that has come out. It has two connectors labelled 1 and 2 just as the old one, but it's layout is quite different. Is this really the right part? Thanks

  • It turned out it was in fact bolted in. The bolt was on the outside of the oven, buried underneath the wadding. This replacement didn't have facility for this bolt, so I had to fabricate something. The bad news is it seems the problem was not the thermostat, as the problem remains. The good news is, the thermostat seems to work and I wired it in properly, since the oven is still just as dysfunctional as it was before :) By Steve - Aylesbury, Bucks - 12 May 2015

    The part has been changed by Neff as the original is not available and the new one is a direct replacement. The phial on the end of the capillary is usually just held in place using a spring clip. If you are removing the a faulty one you can simply cut the capillary to remove it.
