How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool before accessing fans.
- Identify fan: Determine if the noise occurs only in convection mode (convection fan) or anytime the oven is hot (cooling fan).
- Access fan: For convection, remove the rear interior panel inside the oven. For cooling, remove the rear exterior panel.
- Inspect and clean: Remove any debris from the fan blades and housing. Ensure the blade is tight on the motor shaft.
- Check for play: Wiggle the fan shaft; excessive play indicates worn bearings. Replace the fan motor assembly if noisy or loose.
