Lidl silvercrest induction hob SDI3500

Got a Lidl single ring induction hob.  Works well. However, about a year into the 3 year warranty it just stopped mid-use. Nothing. Rien. A fuse? Well yes, but not the obvious fuse near the inlet.

There is a thermal fuse built into a rubber piece which is in contact with the cooking top. It's easy to test. Pull the red connector and if there is no continuity, replace the thermal fuse. You can  short out the pcb connector and do a check that there is no other problem, but never run the appliance with safety items missing,

Bought a similar replacement Sefuse sk167R0. The thermal grease had all dried out and might have contributed to the over-heat triggering.

BTW the green connector is a 100k NTC thermistor.

I found this which has some photos and some other easy to fix problems.
