Possible Causes
Shorted temperature sensor, stuck-closed oven thermostat contacts (mechanical models), miscalibrated control board, failed temperature selector potentiometer
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing control components.
- Confirm with thermometer: Use an oven thermometer to verify that the actual temperature is significantly higher than the set temperature.
- Test sensor or thermostat: For electronic models, measure NTC sensor resistance at room temperature and compare to spec. For mechanical models, test thermostat contacts for proper opening/closing as temperature changes.
- Inspect control board: Look for signs of a welded heating relay (burn marks, relay stuck closed).
- Replace faulty part: Replace the oven temperature sensor or oven thermostat if they are out of spec. If the relay is stuck, replace the main control board.
