Possible Causes

Mechanical thermostat contacts welded closed (on analog models), heater relay stuck on, shorted triac, faulty temperature sensor reading too high

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect mains power immediately to prevent fire risk. Allow oven to cool.

  • Check sensor: Test the NTC sensor for correct resistance. Replace if out of range.
  • Inspect control board: Look for welded relay contacts or a visibly damaged triac. If a relay is stuck, the element may remain energized even when off.
  • Mechanical thermostat: On knob-controlled Clatronic ovens with a mechanical thermostat, test the thermostat contacts with a multimeter while turning the knob. Replace the thermostat if it does not open at lower settings.
  • Replace faulty control: Replace the thermostat or electronic control board as required. Do not continue using the oven until the fault is corrected.
