Possible Causes

Inaccurate temperature sensor, poor air circulation, convection fan not running, control calibration off

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Disconnect power before testing internal components.

  • Use an oven thermometer: Monitor temperature swings during a 30–60 minute bake cycle.
  • Test sensor: Measure resistance at room temperature and replace if out of spec.
  • Check convection fan: Ensure the fan runs in convection mode and that vents are not blocked by pans.
  • Calibrate control: Adjust the oven temperature offset in the settings menu to correct minor deviations.
