Possible Causes

Blown thermal fuse, Open main oven element, Faulty function selector switch, Defective main control board relay

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate the oven from mains power before testing or removing any components.

Diagnostic steps:

  • Check timer/manual mode: Ensure the electronic timer is set to manual and not to an automatic program that has finished.
  • Test thermal fuse: Access the top or rear of the oven and locate the thermal fuse. Test for continuity and replace if open.
  • Check elements: Test the top, bottom, and convection elements for continuity. Replace any that are open.
  • Selector switch: On models with a rotary selector, test for continuity between common and output terminals in each mode.
  • Control board: If all elements and fuses are good, the main control board relay may have failed and require replacement.
