CONVECTION SYSTEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE(S) SUGGESTED REMEDY
Symptom #1 - Blower motor(s) not running
Blower switch off.
No power to the oven.
Motor fuse blown.
Faulty start capacitor.
Motor burned out.
Thermal overload tripped.
No voltage at the motor contactor coil.
Faulty motor contactor.
Turn switch to on position.
Verify power to the oven. If there is no power deĆ
termine cause.
Replace fuse. Determine the amp draw.
Replace capacitor.
Check draw (3 amps or greater).
Determine if the cooling blower (or fans) are operĆ
ating. If not, verify voltage to the cooling blower.
If voltage is present, replace the cooling blower
motor. If voltage is not present, verify voltage
through the thermal switch. If no voltage is presĆ
ent, replace the thermal switch.
Check for blown fuse or bad blower switch.
Replace motor contactor.
Symptom #2 - Blower motor(s) do not shut off
Faulty motor contactor.
Faulty thermocouple on Hi/Lo board.
Faulty Hi/Lo board.
Hi/Lo board is not adjusted properly.
Replace contactor.
Refer to the chart on page 6-5 of the Technical
Appendix. If the readings do not match replace
the thermocouple.
Determine if 115 VAC is coming out of #7 with the
adjustable potentiometer turned completely
counterĆclockwise. If voltage is still present, reĆ
place the board.
Check and readjust Hi/Lo board. Refer to page
4-4 of Calibration and Adjustment.
Symptom #3 - Blower motor running backward
Motor off by thermal overload (other fans forcing
blower to spin).
Faulty capacitor.
Determine if the cooling blower (or fans) are operĆ
ating. If not, verify voltage to the cooling blower.
If voltage is present, replace the cooling blower
motor. If voltage is not present, verify voltage
through the thermal switch. If no voltage is presĆ
ent, replace the thermal switch.
Replace capacitor.
