Possible Causes

Failed heater and fan relays, Faulty main control board microcontroller, Disconnected fan or heater wiring, Software glitch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before inspecting internal wiring.

  • Check for airflow and heat: During a cycle, feel for air at the vents and heat in the cavity. If both are absent, outputs are not being driven.
  • Power reset: Unplug for 10 minutes and retry a simple manual cook mode.
  • Inspect wiring (advanced): Verify that the fan and heater connectors are firmly attached to the main control board.
  • Listen for relay clicks: If no relays click when starting a cycle, the board may be defective.
  • Replace main control board: If wiring is intact and the issue persists, replace the main control board assembly.
