An oven that won’t heat, burns the bottom of every batch or stays locked after a self-clean cycle is usually a single failed part. Best Pro repairs gas and electric wall ovens and the ovens in ranges across Denver and the metro area.
Common oven problems and their causes
- Electric oven not heating. A burned-out bake or broil element is the most common cause — often you can see a blister or a break on it. Hidden bake elements sit under the oven floor. If the elements test fine, we check the temperature sensor, the relays on the control board and the thermal fuse.
- Gas oven not heating. Usually a weak igniter: it still glows, but no longer draws enough current to open the gas valve, so the oven takes forever to light or never lights. Less often the oven gas valve itself has failed.
- Wrong temperature or uneven baking. A drifting temperature sensor, a convection fan that has stopped, or a door gasket that lets heat out. We measure the actual temperature in the cavity rather than going by the display.
- Self-clean problems. Self-clean heats the oven to roughly 800–900°F, and that’s when thermal fuses, control boards and door lock motors most often fail — sometimes with the door locked shut. If the oven quit during self-clean, don’t force the door.
- Error codes. A code points to a circuit — the sensor, the door lock, the control board — but not always to the failed part, so we test before replacing anything.
