Possible Causes

Stuck relay on EOC, Shorted temperature sensor reading high, Wiring fault causing constant fan power

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing internal components.

Steps to check:

  • Allow full cool-down: Ensure the oven is completely cool; some models run the fan until a safe temperature is reached.
  • Test sensor: Measure oven sensor resistance at room temperature; replace if out of spec.
  • Inspect EOC: If the sensor is good, the fan relay on the EOC may be stuck closed. Replace the EOC.
