Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power. Convection components can be hot; allow the unit to cool.

  • Check for airflow: During convection preheat, you should feel warm air circulating. If not, the convection fan may not be running.
  • Inspect fan: Access the rear or side panel (per Monogram service instructions) to view the convection fan assembly. Look for obstructions or heavy grease buildup.
  • Spin test: With power off, spin the fan blade by hand. If stiff or seized, replace the fan motor.
  • Continuity test: Check the convection fan motor and its thermal cutout for continuity. Replace any open components.
  • Replace fan motor: Install the correct Monogram convection fan motor if defective.
