Possible Causes

Aged or drifting temperature sensor, Worn mechanical thermostat, Poor door seal causing heat loss, Control PCB calibration drift

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Isolate power before accessing internal components.

  • Verify with an oven thermometer: Place a reliable oven thermometer in the centre of the cavity and compare actual temperature to the set temperature over several cycles.
  • Inspect door seal: Check the Falcon oven door gasket for gaps, tears, or compression. Replace if not sealing properly.
  • Test temperature sensor/thermostat: Measure resistance of the Falcon oven temperature sensor and compare to spec, or test the mechanical thermostat for correct switching. Replace if readings are out of range.
  • Adjust calibration (if available): Some Falcon models allow temperature offset adjustment via the user menu. Refer to the user manual to fine-tune the temperature.
