Possible Causes
Open grill heating element, Failed convection heater, Faulty heater relay on control board, High-limit thermostat open on heater assembly
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the microwave and allow all internal parts to cool before inspection.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Confirm mode: Ensure you are selecting a grill or convection program correctly according to the Paderno manual.
- 2. Visual inspection: Look at the grill element (usually at the top of the cavity) for breaks or burn spots.
- 3. Access heater terminals: With the cover removed, locate the heater terminals and associated thermostat.
- 4. Test continuity: Use a multimeter to check continuity of the grill element and any inline thermostat. An open reading indicates a failed component.
- 5. Check wiring and relays: Inspect wiring from the control board to the heater for burns or loose connections. If wiring and element are good, the heater relay on the control board may be defective.
