Uneven Heat Distribution
Food cooks unevenly; back of the oven is hotter than the front or one side burns.

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.
