How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Turn off power before accessing internal components. Surfaces may be hot.

  • Check ventilation:
    • Ensure oven vents are not blocked by foil or cookware.
  • Inspect cooling fan:
    • Access the Cooling Fan Motor at the top or rear.
    • Verify it runs whenever the oven is heating; replace if not operating or noisy.
  • Check thermal limiter:
    • Locate any High-Limit Thermostat or thermal cutout on the wiring diagram.
    • If it is a resettable type, reset per instructions; if non-resettable and open, replace.
  • Inspect wiring and EOC:
    • Look for loose connections at the terminal block and EOC.
    • If all else checks out, replace the Electronic Oven Control (EOC).
