Possible Causes

Worn cooling fan motor, obstructed airflow, degraded insulation causing excess heat, high ambient temperature around oven

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power before removing the top cover.

  • Check vents: Ensure cabinet vents and front slots are not blocked by trim or objects.
  • Inspect fan: Access the top cooling fan, clean dust and grease from blades, and check for wobble or noise when spun by hand.
  • Replace motor: If the fan is noisy or slow, replace the cooling fan motor with an AEG-compatible unit.
  • Monitor operation: After repair, run the oven and confirm the fan stops within a reasonable time (typically 10–30 minutes) after cooling.

Warning: Persistent overheating may indicate other faults (e.g. door seal, insulation); investigate if fan replacement does not resolve long run times.
