Possible Causes
Failed relay on control board for oven light or convection fan, Shorted light socket or bulb, Wiring short to chassis, Control board logic fault
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before inspecting internal wiring.
- Check bulb: Remove the oven lamp cover and bulb. Inspect for broken filament or short. Replace with the correct high-temperature bulb.
- Test without bulb: With the bulb removed, restore power and see if F8 clears. A shorted bulb can trigger the fault.
- Inspect wiring: Remove rear panel and check wiring to the light socket and convection fan for melted insulation or shorts to metal.
- Control board: If external components are fine, the relay or driver on the EOC may be damaged. Board replacement is typically required.
