Same-Day Quality Oven Repair with no Upfront Fees

Many issues with kitchen ovens lie in the oven control board. With this type of malfunction, you can’t set the timer or temperature, nor use a number of other functions. Usually, such a breakdown is easy to notice — each issue has its own corresponding fault code which will be displayed on the display. To fix this problem, you need to replace the original control board with a new one.

Identifying the malfunction of a heating element in an oven is quite simple — turn on the device and set the appropriate temperature. There are three types of heating elements: upper (on the top), lower (in the lower part of the unit), and round — installed in the center. Determine whether the temperature inside is rising by using your hand and an oven mitt. For more precise and safer testing, it is recommended to use a device called a pyrometer. It will help you determine if the heat is distributed evenly.

In cooking devices powered by electricity, fans are installed to ensure that the hot air is distributed evenly. Uneven cooking will be the first indication of such a breakdown. The fans run from the motor, where sometimes dust or dirt accumulates causing disturbances to its work. Being in constant contact with oil and grease, the fan should also be cleaned. As this repair involves disassembling the oven, it is best to hire a professional for this type of work.

The thermostat is an on-off switch that controls the heating element. Typically located at the top and back of the oven, it is a long, narrow tube. The oven won’t heat up to the right temperature if there is a problem with the temperature sensor. If you notice that your food is taking longer to cook, or is undercooked it is likely due to the oven not reaching the desired heat. To fix this problem the thermostat has to be recalibrated or replaced.
