Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely.
Basic checks:
- Ensure vents are clear and the cavity is clean, especially around the grill elements.
- Do not cover the convection fan outlet with foil or large dishes.
Sensor inspection (experienced users):
- Remove the outer cover.
- Locate the convection temperature sensor, usually mounted near the top or rear of the cavity, often behind a small metal cover.
- Check the wiring harness from the sensor to the control board for damage or loose connectors.
- Measure sensor resistance at room temperature and compare with service data; replace if open, shorted, or out of range.
After repair: Reassemble and test convection mode at a low temperature setting. If E14 recurs, the control board input may be faulty and require professional service.
