First need to see if supply voltage is correct.
Verify oven probe sensor to the thermostat Is working properly? (usually done by Ohm test)
Thermostast offer an option for calibration?
Also have you verified actual oven temperature with an external thermometer?
Do you mean the fan inside the oven box in the back wall. This is the fan for the Convection bake etc. If so this is how it works..
a) Bake feature - that fan does not come on
b) Convection bake - that fan comes on during bake cycle
So that fan works for several features but not for all. It helps to circulate the hot air inside better for a more even, fast bake.
Do you mean the fan in the control board area. It is there to get the hot air trapped in the oven walls out. Not the heat inside the oven bake box area. This fan works differently depending the model and/or brand. Some models fan works from the time you start. Some models fan comes on only when that area reaches a certain high temperature.
I have a paper copy of the manual - if you need to know anything more than the information below post a more specific question.
The function symbols on Knob F, clockwise from the top, are as follows:
0 = Off
Lamp symbol = Lamp Only, no fan, no heating.
Fan + Drip Symbol = Lamp + Fan, but no Heating - this is for defrosting.
Fan inside a Circle symbol = Lamp + Fan + Oven Heating - this is the normal cooking position. The temperature of the oven is set on the Temperature Knob.
Final position = Grill. The temperature of the Grill is set on the Grill knob.
The red indicator light only comes on when the Oven is heating (not the Grill), and goes off when the oven has reached it's set temperature.
The bulb is 25W 230V Type E-14 300 Degree C.
The oven draws a maximum of 2300W so requires a 10A supply.
1. Faulty thermostat. 2. Faulty thermal cut out switch. (controls power to cooling fan). 3. Faulty cooling fan (not fan inside oven).
Test thermostat by setting thermostat to low temperature like 60 oC. If oven gets much hotter then its a faulty thermostat. To test cooling fan and thermal switch take oven out and remove top or rear panels to expose components. When oven gets hot the cooling fan should turn on. If it doesn't then check to see if there is a mains voltage present. If mains current exist but fan is not turning then replace fan. If mains voltage is not present then its the thermal switch.
When an oven doesn't maintain the set temperature, first make sure no one is allowing the heat to escape by opening its door. If not, the oven control either needs to be re-calibrated or replaced. To have the control replaced, call an appliance service person.
