Possible Causes

Burned-out ring (convection) element, Loose wiring to convection element, Faulty relay controlling convection element

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and let the oven cool.

  • Access convection element: Remove the inner rear panel inside the oven cavity to expose the ring element around the fan.
  • Visual check: Look for breaks or burn marks on the ring element.
  • Measure resistance: Test the element with a multimeter. Replace if open circuit.
  • Check wiring and relay: Inspect wiring to the element and test for supply voltage when convection mode is selected (qualified persons only). If no voltage, suspect the control relay or selector switch.

Warning: Ensure the rear panel is properly reinstalled to maintain correct airflow.
