Possible Causes

Open safety thermostat, Blown thermal fuse, Faulty main relay on control PCB, Broken common feed to heating elements

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and ensure the oven is cool.

  • Confirm mode and temperature: Make sure a valid cooking mode and temperature are selected and the door is fully closed.
  • Check thermal cutouts: Locate the high-limit thermostat and thermal fuse on the oven body. Test for continuity. Replace any open devices.
  • Inspect wiring to elements: Verify that the common live feed to the bake, grill, and convection elements is intact and not burnt.
  • Test element voltages (advanced): With extreme caution and proper tools, check if voltage is supplied to the elements when heating is requested. No voltage suggests a failed relay or control PCB.
  • Replace faulty part: Replace the open thermostat/fuse first. If all safety devices are good, the main control PCB may need replacement.
