Possible Causes

Overheating control panel, Loose power connection, Faulty electronic control board, Intermittent door switch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before inspecting wiring or controls.

  • Check ventilation: Ensure the oven's front and rear vents are not blocked by cabinets or items.
  • Inspect power connections: For ranges, check the terminal block and cord for loose or burned connections. For wall ovens, inspect the junction box connections.
  • Door switch test: If the oven shuts off when the door is bumped, test and replace the door switch.
  • Replace control board: If wiring and switches are good, an intermittent EOC failure is likely; replace the board.
