When you say they keep cutting out, what do you mean. Is the breaker tripping?

sometimes the breaker would trip other times they would just go off
switching them on and off uselly restarted them ,so iam hopeing the loose wire is the fix,because the hob and cooker use the same socket

If they share the same cooker circuit from the consumer unit and the oven is anything more than a basic single oven then it's probably being overloaded, TBH.
