Possible Causes

Failed EOC relays, open thermal cutoff, child lock or Sabbath mode enabled, door switch not recognized as closed

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Disconnect power before testing internal components.

  • Check settings: Ensure the oven is not in Control Lock or Sabbath mode; disable these features per the user manual.
  • Verify door switch: Listen for a click when closing the door. Test the switch for continuity when closed.
  • Test thermal cutoff: Locate and test any thermal cutoffs for continuity; replace if open.
  • Replace EOC: If safety devices are good and the oven still will not energize elements, the control board may be defective and require replacement.
