Possible Causes

Warped oven racks, bent side runners, heavy grease buildup, missing anti-tip stops

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before removing racks.

  • Remove and clean: Take out all racks and side runners. Clean thoroughly with warm soapy water to remove grease and carbon.
  • Inspect for damage: Check racks for warping or bent wires. Inspect runners for bending or broken clips.
  • Straighten or replace: Minor bends can sometimes be carefully straightened. Severely distorted racks or runners should be replaced.
  • Reinstall correctly: Ensure runners are clipped into the correct positions and that racks are seated level on both sides.
