Oven clock loses time or resets intermittently

Safety first: Turn off power before inspecting electrical connections.

• Step 1 – Check outlet or junction box: Ensure the oven is on a dedicated circuit and that connections are tight.
• Step 2 – Inspect terminal block: With power off, check for loose screws or burnt wires at the terminal block.
• Step 3 – Avoid shared heavy loads: Do not run high-draw appliances (like space heaters) on the same circuit.
• Step 4 – Control board: If power is stable but the clock still resets, the control board's internal power supply may be failing and require replacement.

Tip: Using a surge protector is generally not recommended for hardwired ovens; instead, ensure proper grounding and dedicated circuit.
