Possible Causes
Cooling fan not running, Blocked ventilation slots, Damaged door seal, Misaligned door
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and allow the cooker to cool before inspection.
- 1. Check cooling fan operation: During use, you should hear a fan running behind the control panel. If not, suspect the cooling fan motor or its supply.
- 2. Inspect vents: Ensure top and rear ventilation slots are not blocked by cabinetry or objects.
- 3. Check door seal and alignment: Replace a damaged seal and correct any hinge issues so the door closes tightly.
- 4. Replace cooling fan: If the fan motor is seized or not receiving power (after checking wiring and control), replace it with a Rangemaster-compatible cooling fan motor.
