- The oven failing to activate.
- Noticeable fluctuations in temperature.
- The oven's inability to shut off properly, elevating the risk of overheating.
- Detection of smoke or a burning odor coming from the oven.
This component is vital for safeguarding and optimizing the functionality of your oven's temperature management system.
