This tutorial will show you how to check your Smeg element and how to replace your Smeg cooker element.
Here are the 3 main faults to look for in your oven or cooker that is not heating
Your oven will not work until the clock/timer has been re-set after replacing an oven element or tripping the electrical supply. Consult your Smeg manual.
If your Oven is not getting hot or heating up it could be a faulty element, if the fan in the oven is running and the thermostat light is on, this will lead us to believe that the element has gone faulty. With grills the thermostat light should come on there should be heat, if not then this could be the grill element or the thermostat.
When you turn the oven on, the household electrical supply trips on the Rcd (this is the earth trip in the fuse board sometimes called the breaker tripping) your fan oven element has gone to earth and needs replacing.

Check online for your oven and it might show different problems with that type. Also, my oven did that and it was just the heating element on the bottom. The top one was working okay. I looked on Amazon and found the right one by range model #. It only costs about 20.00 and easy to install. If that isn't the problem, it might be the wiring in the back. If that's the case I would call someone.
Perhaps you have up to 240 V on the lamp socket and you are installing a 120V bulb. Check for wiring faults, especially an open neutral or ground connection in the oven. If the lamp socket neutral is connected to the neutral on a lower-resistance device on the other leg, but the wire connecting these two items is not connected to the power cord neutral, the voltage across the bulb will be more than it can handle. In this scenario, the other device (heating element, timer, or whatever) will probably not work or will work poorly after the bulb blows.
If the fan is working o/k, then it is going to be the oven element that is faulty. This is located behind a removeable cover at the rear of the oven compartment.
did you check if the element is craked could need to be replaced. even if you don't see anything check with ohm meter make sure there is some resistance (over 20) also try oven on boiler see if that helps
