Possible Causes
Fan oven element partially open or weak, oven fan motor running slowly, damaged fan blades, door seal leaking heat
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Isolate power and allow the oven to cool.
Checks:
- Remove the inner rear panel to expose the fan oven element and fan.
- Inspect the element for hot spots, cracks, or areas that look burnt. Even if it still heats, damage can reduce performance; replace if suspect.
- Spin the fan blades by hand; they should move freely. If stiff or noisy, replace the fan motor.
- Check the door seal all around for gaps, tears, or flattening. Replace if not sealing properly.
- Use an oven thermometer to compare set vs actual temperature; if significantly off, also consider a faulty thermostat or sensor.
