Belling Insufficient Cooling / Heat Migration to Control Panel

Control knobs become very hot to touch during cooking.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed cooling fan, Blocked ventilation slots, Missing or damaged door seal, Incorrect installation without ventilation gap

Safety: Hot knobs can indicate poor cooling; avoid prolonged contact to prevent burns.

Verify cooling fan: During operation, check if the top/front cooling fan runs. If not, test and replace the cooling fan motor.
Check vents: Ensure front and rear vents are not blocked by cabinetry or objects.
Inspect door seal: Replace any damaged seals that allow excessive heat to escape towards the controls.
Installation check: Confirm that the oven is installed with the clearances specified by Belling to allow proper airflow.
