How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool before removing panels.

Steps:

  • Remove oven racks and the rear interior panel to access the convection fan.
  • Check for loose screws or panels vibrating against the fan housing.
  • Inspect the fan blade for warping, cracks, or baked-on debris; clean carefully.
  • Spin the fan by hand; if it feels rough or wobbly, the motor bearings are likely worn.

Corrective actions:

  • Tighten all fan mounting screws.
  • Replace a damaged convection fan blade or the entire fan motor assembly if noisy.
