Possible Causes

Stuck or burnt relay contacts, Shorted triac on PCB, Overheated control board, Power surge damage

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the mains. Control board work involves live circuits and should be done by a qualified technician.

  • Reset control: Isolate for 5–10 minutes and restore power. If F5 returns immediately, internal damage is likely.
  • Check for burning smell: Remove the control panel (with power off) and inspect the PCB for burnt areas or cracked solder joints.
  • Do not bypass relays: Never attempt to bridge or bypass failed relays; this is unsafe and can cause fire.
  • Replace EOC: If a relay or triac has failed, replace the entire electronic oven control with the correct Montpellier part.
