Possible Causes
Stuck cooling thermostat, control board not detecting temperature drop, shorted fan relay, high residual heat due to insulation issues
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing internal components.
- Allow full cool-down: Some models keep the fan running until the oven is fully cool; this can take up to an hour. If it runs much longer, investigate.
- Check cooling thermostat: Locate the cooling thermostat (usually on top of the oven cavity). Test it for continuity when cold; it should be open. If it remains closed, replace it.
- Inspect control board: If the thermostat is working but the fan never stops, the fan relay on the control board may be stuck and the board will need replacement.
