Possible Causes

Loose rear panel screws, cooling fan shroud vibrating, loose internal wiring or conduit, transformer or relay buzz on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power before tightening screws or touching internal parts.

Steps:

  • With the oven off and cool, check and tighten all accessible rear panel and side panel screws.
  • Remove the top panel to inspect the cooling fan assembly. Ensure all mounting screws are tight and any foam pads or anti-vibration mounts are in place.
  • Secure any loose wiring looms with cable ties so they do not vibrate against metal surfaces.
  • If the noise is clearly from a relay or transformer on the PCB, this is usually harmless but can indicate wear; consider PCB replacement if noise is excessive.
