Clatronic Grill Element Failure

Microwave grill function (if equipped) does not brown food; grill element does not glow red.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Open grill heating element, Faulty grill thermostat, Defective grill relay on control PCB, Loose wiring to grill element

Steps:

Correct mode: Ensure you have selected grill or combination mode and allowed sufficient time for browning.
Visual check: During grill operation, the grill element should glow red after a short time (visible through the door). If it remains dark, it may be open-circuit.
Technician testing: Unplug, remove cabinet, and test the grill element and thermostat for continuity. Repair wiring or replace components as needed.
