How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before tightening electrical connections.

Steps:

  • Inspect the power terminal block and internal wiring for loose connections; tighten as needed.
  • If the oven is on a shared circuit with heavy loads, consider moving it to a dedicated circuit to reduce voltage dips.
  • If random resets continue, the EOC's internal memory or power supply may be failing; replace the EOC.
  • Use a surge protector or whole-house surge protection to minimize future damage from power events.
