GE Unstable temperature control

Oven temperature fluctuates widely during baking

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failing temperature sensor, Sticky control board relays, Poor door seal causing heat loss

Safety first: Turn off power before component testing.

Check door gasket: Inspect for gaps or tears. Replace the GE oven door gasket if it does not seal tightly.
Test sensor: Verify sensor resistance and replace if readings are unstable or out of range.
Monitor with thermometer: Use an oven thermometer to confirm fluctuations. If swings are extreme despite good sensor and gasket, replace the EOC.
