Gram Convection Element Failure

Oven fan runs but there is no heat in fan-assisted modes; conventional top/bottom heat may still work.

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

Open circular fan element, Burned wiring at fan element, Faulty fan element relay, Overheated connector block near fan

Safety first: Isolate the oven from mains.

Steps to check:

Remove the rear inner panel of the cavity to expose the convection element.
Inspect the element for visible breaks or burn marks.
Test the element with a multimeter for continuity; replace if open.
Check wiring and connectors for heat damage and replace any discolored terminals.
If the element is good but never heats, suspect the main control board relay controlling the fan element.

Warning: Ensure all panels are refitted correctly to avoid contact with live parts.
