Possible Causes

Weak or partially open lower element, Failed convection or grill element in multi-element heating, Drifted temperature sensor, Poor door seal causing heat loss

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and allow the oven to cool before testing elements.

  • Element test: Test all heating elements (upper, lower, grill, convection) for continuity and correct resistance. Replace any element that is open or significantly higher resistance than specified.
  • Sensor check: Verify the oven temperature sensor resistance at room temperature. Replace if out of spec.
  • Door seal: Inspect the door gasket for gaps, tears, or flattening. Replace if it does not seal evenly all around.
  • Preheat test: After repairs, time how long the oven takes to reach 180–200°C. Compare to the user manual expectations.
