Possible oven faults can be divided into four big groups. The first is connected with external reasons, namely with problems of house wiring, the second – with infringements of rules of operation, the third – with physical deterioration of the device at continuous operation, the fourth – with a factory defect that is practically excluded at purchase of techniques of the checked-up brands. at these malfunctions experts of Thor Oven Repairs will help you

The device knocks out the automatic machines

Electric oven is quite a powerful consumer. For its connection, it is recommended to provide a separate line of wiring and protection elements. If the wiring is not rated for the oven’s power, the network will be overloaded, and the circuit breaker will trip. 

If the circuit breaker is triggered while the oven is heating up, there may be a leakage current to the cabinet. This is a very dangerous situation, it is strictly forbidden to use such an oven. If the automatics trip, the oven must be turned off and contact Thor Oven Repair and Service immediately.

The grill does not turn on

If the grill in your oven won’t turn on, there could be several reasons. One of the most likely is a failed heating element. In addition to the thermal stresses, the grill element is subject to moisture, grease, and other contaminants released by food during cooking.

If not cleaned in time, over time, the fouling on the surface of the heater will form a dense layer. As a result, the heating element will work with an increased load and will soon burn out. It is possible to correct the malfunction only by replacing the heating element. This repair is carried out only by Thor Oven Repair technicians.

The convection fan doesn’t work

The presence of the convection mode allows you to ensure uniform heating of the entire volume of the working chamber of the oven. Circulation of air is performed through the work of the fan, located most often on the back wall of the chamber. If after turning on this mode, the fan does not start to rotate, the cause of the malfunction should be sought, starting with checking the wiring of the device. It should only be checked by Thor Oven Repairs and Services. 

Broken door glass

The doors of modern ovens use special heat-resistant glass capable of withstanding temperature fluctuations. Cracks in the glass can be caused by a factory defect, namely by failure to manufacture the glass. 

To use the oven with cracked or broken glass is strictly prohibited, as there is a risk of thermal burns or injury from fragments. Damaged glass must be replaced. Thor Oven Repair technicians will replace the glass quickly and within the agreed time frame.

Broken switches or touchpad

The oven’s operating modes are set by means of rotary switches or the touchpad. Prolonged use can cause the springs on the switch contacts to weaken and melt the contacts themselves. Often the reason for breakage of the switches is the ingress of water, grease or dirt on their working surfaces. In this case it is possible to restore the operability of the switch by disassembling and cleaning it with alcohol. If the element cannot be repaired, the solution is to replace it.

If the electric oven is malfunctioning, unplug it and contact the Appliance Service Center. Do-it-yourself repairs are not only impractical but also dangerous. Without knowledge of the oven’s construction, you may damage the fasteners or damage the insulation while disassembling it. In addition, an unqualified repair may result in a risk of electric shock during and after the repair, if the appliance is used. Only an experienced Thor Oven Repair and Service technician can correctly diagnose a malfunction, and even more so, determine the causes of the malfunction.
