BlueStar Temperature Calibration or Sensor Drift

Oven temperature is consistently too hot or too cold compared to a separate oven thermometer.

Possible Causes

Aging oven temperature sensor, Control calibration offset, Poor rack placement or airflow restriction

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before accessing internal components.

Steps to try:

  • Verify with thermometer: Place an accurate oven thermometer in the center of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Compare the reading after 20–30 minutes.
  • Adjust calibration: Many BlueStar EOCs allow a temperature offset adjustment (e.g., ±35°F). Follow your manual to increase or decrease the displayed temperature to match the actual reading.
  • Check sensor: If the offset required is large (>25°F), test the oven temperature sensor resistance at room temperature and replace if out of spec.
  • Ensure airflow: Avoid blocking convection fans or vents with large pans or foil.
