Possible Causes

Non-functioning convection fan, Warped or mispositioned racks, Faulty heating element on one side, Poor calibration

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before adjusting any components.

  • Use convection mode: For even cooking, use fan-assisted modes if available.
  • Check fan operation: Ensure the convection fan operates in fan modes. If it does not, replace the fan motor.
  • Level oven: Use a spirit level to ensure the oven is level from front to back and side to side.
  • Rotate trays: During long baking cycles, rotate trays halfway through as a workaround.

If uneven heating is severe, test the heating elements and temperature sensor, and consider control board calibration or replacement.
