Possible Causes

Weak or partially failed element, Faulty temperature sensor, Poor door seal, Miscalibrated control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before testing electrical components.

  • Check door gasket: Inspect the oven door seal for gaps, tears, or compression. Replace if damaged.
  • Verify elements: Ensure both bake and broil elements glow when preheating (some models use both). Test their resistance.
  • Test sensor: Measure oven sensor resistance at room temperature and compare to specs. Replace if out of range.
  • Calibrate control: Some Fagor controls allow temperature offset adjustment in the settings menu. Adjust according to the user manual if the oven is consistently off by a known amount.
