Possible Causes
Failed fan oven element, Partially open element causing low output, Faulty thermostat calibration, Temperature sensor drifted out of range
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect the oven from mains power before accessing elements.
- Check fan oven element:
- Remove the fan cover inside the cavity.
- Inspect the circular fan element for cracks or burn marks.
- Test resistance; an open circuit or very high resistance indicates failure.
- Replace the fan element with a Hoover-compatible part if faulty.
- Verify temperature:
- Use an oven thermometer to compare actual temperature to the set temperature.
- If the oven is consistently low by a large margin, the thermostat or sensor may be out of calibration.
- Replace sensor/thermostat if needed:
- Test the NTC sensor resistance curve if data is available.
- Replace the sensor or mechanical thermostat if readings are out of specification.
