      Oven Fan Won't Turn Off?

      Troubleshooting and Solutions

      If your oven fan won't turn off, it can be both annoying and a potential sign of a malfunction. Here are some common reasons for this issue and steps to troubleshoot and fix it:

      Common Causes:

      1. Faulty Oven Control Board:

        • The control board that regulates the fan might be malfunctioning, causing the fan to run continuously.

      2. Defective Temperature Sensor or Thermostat:

        • The temperature sensor or thermostat might be faulty, sending incorrect signals to the control board.

      3. Stuck Relay:

        • A relay on the control board might be stuck in the "on" position.

      4. Wiring Issues:

        • There might be a short circuit or loose wiring causing the fan to stay on.

      Troubleshooting Steps:

      1. Reset the Oven:

        • Turn off the oven and unplug it from the electrical outlet or turn off the circuit breaker.
        • Wait a few minutes, then plug it back in or turn on the circuit breaker.
        • This can sometimes reset the control board and resolve the issue.

      2. Check the Temperature Sensor or Thermostat:

        • Turn off the power to the oven and unplug it.
        • Locate the temperature sensor or thermostat, usually found inside the oven cavity.
        • Use a multimeter to test the sensor or thermostat for continuity. If it is faulty, it might need to be replaced.

      3. Inspect the Control Board:

        • Turn off the power to the oven and unplug it.
        • Access the control board, usually located behind the control panel or at the back of the oven.
        • Inspect the board for any visible signs of damage or burnt components.
        • Use a multimeter to test the relays on the control board. If a relay is stuck in the "on" position, it might need to be replaced or the entire control board may need to be repaired.

      4. Check the Wiring and Connections:

        • Inspect the wiring connected to the fan, control board, and temperature sensor for any signs of damage or loose connections.
        • Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
        • Repair or replace any damaged wiring as necessary.

      Replacing Faulty Components:

      1. Replacing the Temperature Sensor or Thermostat:

        • Purchase a replacement sensor or thermostat that matches your oven model.
        • Follow the manufacturer's instructions to replace the component. Typically, this involves disconnecting the old sensor or thermostat and connecting the new one in its place.
        • Secure the new component and reassemble the oven.

      2. Repairing or Replacing the Control Board:

        • If the control board is identified as the issue, consider sending it to UpFix for repair. This can save you up to 80% compared to buying a new control board.
