Bertazzoni oven/range fan continues after the oven is turned off

The cooling fan in a Bertazzoni oven/range is designed to circulate air and help to cool the oven after it is turned off. The fan will typically run for approximately 30 minutes after the oven is turned off. This is normal and helps to prevent overheating of the oven’s controls.

However, if the fan continues to run for an extended period of time (more than 30 minutes), it could be a sign of a malfunction. Here are some possible causes of a malfunctioning fan:

• Faulty fan motor: If the fan motor is faulty, it may not be able to turn off properly.
• Faulty control board: The control board is responsible for controlling the operation of the fan. If the control board is faulty, it may not be able to turn off the fan properly.
• Blocked fan vent: If the fan vent is blocked, it may prevent the fan from cooling down and shutting off properly.

If you experience this issue, you should first try to determine the cause. You can do this by checking the fan motor, control board, and fan vent. If you are unable to determine the cause, you should contact a qualified technician for assistance.

Here are some specific troubleshooting steps you can take:

• Check the fan motor: To check the fan motor, turn on the oven and listen for the fan to start running. If the fan does not start running, the fan motor may be faulty. You can also try to turn the fan by hand. If the fan is difficult to turn, the fan motor may be faulty.
• Check the control board: To check the control board, turn on the oven and observe the control panel. If the fan does not turn off after 30 minutes, the control board may be faulty. You can also try to reset the control board by unplugging the oven for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in.
• Check the fan vent: To check the fan vent, remove the oven racks and look inside the oven. If the fan vent is blocked with food particles or other debris, clean the vent.

If you have checked all of these things and you are still experiencing the issue, you should contact a qualified technician for assistance.
