Possible Causes

Intermittent temperature sensor, Loose sensor connection, Control board relay chatter, Poor rack placement or overloading

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • Verify proper rack placement and avoid overcrowding the oven, which can affect air circulation.
  • Test the temperature sensor resistance at room temperature and while gently heating; look for intermittent jumps in resistance.
  • Inspect and reseat the sensor connector at the control board.

Corrective actions:

  • Replace an intermittent temperature sensor.
  • If the sensor is stable but temperature swings remain large, the control board may be misregulating and should be replaced.
