Belling 492 bl short out when oven turned on

Check for short to ground or for no resistance on heating element with DVM "Digital Meter" If meter is not available try this - With circuit breaker turned off disconnect wires to bottom heating element - put caps on wires or otherwise islotate the connections from any metal. Turn breaker back on and adjust temp on oven if RCD does not trip then the element is bad "Shorted" replace element. Element can be shorted to ground or shorted internally.

It looks like the probe is the same as the temperature sensor.

On some models, you can recalibrate the oven control up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit higher or lower. Refer to your owner's manual for instructions on how to recalibrate the oven control.

Since you're getting an error message the following may apply:

OPEN PROBE CONNECTION
1. (F30 or F31) Check resistance at room temperature & compare to RTD Sensor resistance chart. If resistance does not match the RTD chart replace RTD Sensor Probe. Check Sensor wiring harness between EOC & Sensor Probe connector.

SHORTED PROBE CONNECTION
2. (F30 or F31) Check resistance at room temperature, if less than 500 ohms, replace RTD Sensor Probe. Check for shorted Sensor Probe harness between EOC & Probe connector. .

Sometimes I had it where the lamp holder in the oven has a short and then welds the contact on the function switch. If you replace the complete lamp and holder and function switch for the oven. 3 time last year on bellings this happened. To try disconnect the two wire on the lamp holder then if it doesn't trip you no that's it make sure you turn the oven off and don't touch the wires together when u turn back on.

Not really. there would be a short circuit somewhere. possibly the element or somewhere in the connections.

You need to check the continuity of the wires from the mains plug to the main heating coil. This means that the switch and the circuit to the heating coils will confirm the short. If the heating element is short then the main line should be removed to confirm the short and so the circuit will not trip.

Hi you have a definite short , it could be a bad element or a wire that has burned though and is touching metal, turn off main power and start taking this unit apart, i would start with the grill since this is giving you the problem, http://www.appliancepartspros.com/ this place has almost every part i have ever needed and they ship same day you can also email me @ [email protected] good luck !

Hi.

Replace the temperature probe located in the oven cavity. The probe was initially shorted. That caused temperature runaway with the oven getting too hot. After a while the shorted sensor blew completely staying open all the time. That is resulting in no heat.

If the temperature sensor has already been replaced, then problem is either wiring or oven electronic control. Wiring harness is tested checking continuity between different points.

Likely the element is shorted in the main oven. The Calrod elements short usually at the bends and if the breaker doesn't trip they burn a hole in them and arc. You can USUALLY see a different discoloration at teh failure point. Check both upper and lower elements as preheat probably uses both. Use a dental mirror if necessary to see under and over. Use bright light.

I'm afraid it means replacing the whole clock/timer unit, there is no otther way around the problem.

on maytag's a F3 means shorted or open oven temperature sensor. google your models oven number codes.
