Possible Causes
One of multiple elements failed (e.g., only top or only fan element working), incorrect wiring after element replacement, partially open element causing reduced power
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool before testing elements.
- Check all elements: Identify all heating elements used in the selected mode (fan element, base element, top element). Test each for correct resistance.
- Inspect wiring: Ensure that all element terminals are correctly wired according to the AGA wiring diagram. Miswiring can leave elements unpowered.
- Replace failed elements: Any element that is open or significantly higher resistance than specified should be replaced.
- Retest preheat: After replacing elements, verify that the oven reaches set temperature within the expected time.
