If the power cord is loose or broken, see our Power Cord replacement guide.
The glass door sticks when opening or closing.
If the door does not swing smoothly or does not close completely, check for obstruction.

These problems may indicate a faulty heating element. See our Heating Element Replacement guide.
The built-in timer is inaccurate or does not function correctly.
Check the timer’s accuracy against another timer, the timer may either be too fast or too slow. If the timer doesn’t function at all, replacement may be necessary. See our Timer Replacement Guide.
This timer comes installed as a closed unit: we recommend replacing it entirely.
The oven does not heat to a consistent temperature regardless of heat setting.
Use a second timer to check that the oven’s timer is accurate. If not, see our Timer Replacement guide.
If the timer is accurate, the heating element may be faulty. See our Heating Element Replacement guide.
