Possible Causes

Non-functioning convection fan, Warped or mispositioned racks, Faulty element on one side, Poor calibration

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the oven to cool before adjusting components.

  • Use convection mode: For even cooking, use fan-assisted modes when available.
  • Check fan operation: Ensure the convection fan runs in fan modes. Replace the fan motor if not.
  • Level oven: Use a spirit level to ensure the oven is level front-to-back and side-to-side.
  • Rotate trays: During long bakes, rotate trays halfway through as a workaround.

If uneven heating is severe, test elements and sensor, and consider control board calibration or replacement.
