Continuous clicking indicates that the electronic spark ignition circuit is staying closed. This is almost always caused by residual moisture or grease spills finding their way inside the physical ignition switch mounted behind the burner knob. It can also occur if the ceramic spark electrode itself is covered in wet food debris, forcing the high-voltage spark module to misinterpret the electrical ground. Our technicians clean and dry the switch assemblies, check the electrode alignment, and replace shorted spark modules to eliminate the irritating clicking safely.

When baking becomes highly inconsistent, it generally means one of the two primary heating elements has suffered a structural failure. Most modern ovens rely on the lower bake element for 90% of the ambient heat while cycling the top broil element intermittently to maintain even distribution. If the lower bake element develops a microscopic fracture or shorts out completely, the oven will try to reach temperature using only the top broil element, resulting in scorched tops and undercooked bottoms. We test both elements for structural continuity and replace failing coils immediately.

Digital error codes starting with 'F' usually point to an issue with the oven's temperature sensing or control network. An F3 or F30 fault typically signals an open or shorted RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) sensor—the small metal rod protruding from the upper back wall of your oven cavity. If this sensor cannot accurately communicate internal temperatures to the main electronic control board (ERC), the system locks down into an error state as a safety measure to prevent a dangerous runaway thermal event. We use ohmmeters to check sensor calibration and replace faulty probes or control modules on the spot.
