mrjohn Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 A couple of months ago I asked a question about replacing an oven thermostat. I got some sensible advice, namely, take the old one out and take it round a few shops to see if you can find a replacement. I did just this and have so far drawn a blank. I’m going on a shopping trip to Pattaya next week. So, does anyone know of any electrical shops in and around Pattaya that might sell an oven thermostat?

RabC Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Look for the local agent for whatever make of oven you have would be my advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjohn Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 "Look for the local agent for whatever make of oven you have would be my advice." Thanks, but that is not what I asked. In any case the manufacturer (Fagor) went bust a few years ago. So I’m looking for any working thermostat that I can fit in the oven. Hence the question,where might I start looking for one?

Inn Between Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 There's a store in the basement of TukCom (South Pattaya Road, near Friendship Supermarket). I think it's called Amhorn. Might be worthwhile asking there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eefoo Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) Amorn used to be good - they had just about every spare for everything. Gone downhill in recent years though but it's still the first place I would try for such a thing. Other than that, it's a foot-slogging job asking at every electrical shop at the Jomtien end of Thepprasit Road. Edit: On second thoughts Naklua is the place to be looking. Loads of shops there with hard-to-find items. Enlist the help of a knowlegable local. Edited February 4, 2016 by eefoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaitero Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 (edited) Left side thepparasit road "red sign with thai" when coming from tapparaya road before scb - bank.. One day was searching a relay for my fridge and this was recommended and there i found it. Edited February 4, 2016 by thaitero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenslegs Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Numchai on Sukhumvit road replaced a thermostat on my Fagor oven (about 4 years ago). I had to take the oven to the shop and they sent it to Bangkok for repair. If they can't fix it the shop at post #6 would be my next choice - the shop on Thepprasit road, about 50m downhill from the petrol station, with a green & white sunshade - take the part or photograph of it with you unless you speak fluent Thai.

monsieurhappy Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Try the service centre at Nom Chai. It's on Sukhumvit road between Soi Siam CC. and Nung Plab Wan. They may have to order from Bangkok if they can get your part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjohn Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Many thanks for all the ideas here. I now have plenty of places to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
