Possible Causes

Corrupted EOC calibration data, Faulty temperature sensor, Software glitch after power surge

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before removing panels.

Steps:

  • Power reset: Turn the breaker OFF for 5 minutes, then ON. Test oven operation.
  • Sensor test: Verify oven sensor resistance at room temperature (~1050–1100 Ω). Replace if out of spec.
  • Recalibrate: Some Magic Chef models allow temperature calibration via the user menu (e.g., adjust +/− 35°F). Follow the user manual to recalibrate.
  • Replace EOC: If F13 persists, replace the EOC.

Note: Always verify actual oven temperature with an oven thermometer after repairs.
