Possible Causes

Open-circuit safety thermostat, overheated oven top due to blocked vents, wiring fault to safety thermostat, failed resettable thermal cut-out

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool completely. Overheating may indicate a ventilation or fan issue.

Thermostat checks:

  • Access the top or rear of the oven to locate the safety thermostat or thermal cut-out (usually a small round or rectangular device clipped to the top of the cavity or rear panel).
  • Some models have a manual reset button on the thermostat; press it firmly until you feel a click.
  • Test continuity across the thermostat terminals with a multimeter. If open and non-resettable, replace the thermostat.
  • Inspect surrounding insulation and wiring for signs of overheating; correct any vent blockages and ensure the cooling fan operates.

After reset or replacement: Restore power and test a moderate temperature bake. If the thermostat trips again, investigate cooling fan operation and cabinet ventilation.
