Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing controls.
- Allow full cool-down: Ensure the oven has been off for several hours. Some fans run for a while after use.
- Test sensor: Check the oven temperature sensor resistance at room temperature. Replace if reading is far from spec.
- Inspect control board: If the sensor is good, the fan relay on the EOC may be stuck closed. Replace the EOC if necessary.
