Possible Causes
Aged or drifting oven temperature sensor, Miscalibrated EOC, Poor rack placement or airflow, Door not sealing properly
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Use caution when placing or removing an oven thermometer; surfaces will be hot.
- Verify with thermometer: Place an oven-safe thermometer in the center of the oven and preheat to 350°F. Compare the reading after 20–30 minutes.
- Adjust calibration: Many Electrolux models allow temperature adjustment in the user settings (e.g., +/- 35°F). Follow the user manual to calibrate.
- Inspect door gasket: Check the door seal for gaps, tears, or compression. Replace if damaged.
- Test sensor: If calibration cannot correct the issue, test and replace the oven temperature sensor.
