How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker; allow oven to cool fully.

  • Check sensor: Measure resistance of the oven temperature sensor at room temperature (~1050–1100 Ω). Replace the oven temperature sensor if out of range.
  • Inspect control relays: Remove control panel and inspect EOC for welded or burnt relays. Replace the electronic oven control if relays are stuck.
  • Ventilation: Ensure cabinet cutout and oven vents meet installation clearances and are not blocked.
