PROBLEM
OVEN WILL
NOT OPERATE
POSSIBLE CAUSE AND REMEDY
• Difficulty may be in the main distribution panel of your house by a blown oven
circuit fuse, a tripped oven circuit breaker, the main fuse or the main circuit breaker,
depending on nature of the power supply. If a circuit breaker is involved, reset it. If the
control box uses fuses, the oven fuse (a cartridge-type) should be changed BUT ONLY
BY SOMEONE FAMILIAR WITH ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS. If after doing one of
these procedures, the fuse blows or circuit breaker trips again, call for service.
NOTE: Apartment tenants or condominium owners should request their building
management to perform this check before calling for service.
