Possible Causes
Failed convection fan motor, Obstructed fan blade, Faulty convection relay on control board, Broken wiring to fan
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool.
- Listen for fan: In convection mode, you should hear the fan running. If not, suspect the fan circuit.
- Inspect fan: Remove the rear oven panel inside the cavity to access the fan. Check for obstructions and ensure the blade spins freely.
- Test motor: With power off, disconnect the fan and measure resistance. An open motor indicates failure; replace the fan motor assembly.
- Check wiring and control: If the motor is good, check wiring and the control board's convection relay. Replace the control board if it does not supply power to the fan in convection mode.
