The oven was a Smeg SA708X-7 wall oven. What was discovered when testing the oven through the different setting we found the fan forced fan motor shaft had become loose and then move to far forward. This then pushed the blade against the fan cover and hitting it. 

Our local oven repair team in Alton didn’t have the right part on site. We then arrange pick up in half hour to our local depo and returned to install a new fan forced fan motor kit . The Smeg is now in good repair and working properly at full temperature.
