Possible Causes

Failed convection fan motor, Obstructed convection fan blades, Faulty fan wiring or connector

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool before accessing the rear panel.

  • Check fan operation: In convection mode, you should hear the fan running. If silent, suspect the motor or power to it.
  • Access convection fan: Remove the rear panel of the oven or the interior rear cover (depending on model) to reach the convection fan assembly.
  • Inspect blades: Ensure the fan blades spin freely by hand and are not rubbing against the shroud. Remove any debris.
  • Test motor: With power off, disconnect the fan motor and test for continuity. Replace the motor if open or seized.
  • Check wiring: Inspect the harness from the control board to the fan for damage or loose connectors.
