What is wrong with my Baumatic cooker?

Hi there,
I've just replaced the element in my Baumatic oven because it was burnt out but now when i turn the oven on it seems to overheat and shut the oven off after a few minutes (the fan stops, element goes off and all lights on the display go out). When i leave the oven for a while the display will come back on and i am able to start heating the oven up again before it turns itself off again.

Any ideas why this might be? I didnt have the problem before replacing the element. The new element i was sent is 2500W and 240v compared to the old one which was 2300W and 225V - do you think this could be a cause of this problem? Or might i have reconnected the wires incorrectly? Or a problem with the thermostat.

Thanks for your help,

Thanks for your answer. The thermostat light doesnt go off when i turn the temperature down so I guess it is the thermostat.

when the oven is hot can you make the thermostat light go off by turning it down to say 50 deg?.If the light stays on the thermostat isn't working and might be causing the problem
