Electrolux Oven Burner Ignition Problems (Gas Ovens)

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Burner Ignition Problems (Gas Ovens)

Burner cap not on correctly

Make sure the cap is properly aligned on the burner head. If the cap is misaligned the igniter may not spark properly, and the burner flame will be uneven.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Module

The spark modules provides power to each surface burner spark electrode. If the burner is produces a weak spark, or if the burner sparks intermittently, the spark module might be defective. Before replacing the spark module, first check the spark electrode and the spark wire. If the spark electrode and spark wire are not at fault, the spark module is likely defective. If the spark module is defective, replace it.

Incoming Power Problem

The electrical outlet may not be getting power. To determine if the outlet is getting power, try plugging something else into the outlet. If the outlet is not getting power, check the home circuit breakers or fuses.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch

When the burner is turned on, the spark ignition switch sends voltage to the spark module to produce a spark. If the spark ignition switch is defective, it won’t send voltage to the spark module, and the burner won’t be able to produce a spark. If your range’s burner isn’t sparking, check to see if the other burners are sparking properly. If the other burners are sparking properly, the spark ignition switch is likely defective.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch and Harness

When the burner is turned on, the spark ignition switch sends voltage to the spark module to produce a spark. If the spark ignition switch is defective, it won’t send voltage to the spark module, and the burner won’t be able to produce a spark. If your range’s burner isn’t sparking, check to see if the other burners are sparking properly. If the other burners are sparking properly, the spark ignition switch is likely defective. If the spark ignition switch is not sold separately, you will have to purchase the switch and harness assembly.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Electrode

The spark electrode sends a spark to ignite the gas in the burner assembly. If the spark electrode is defective or worn out, it might not produce a spark, or the spark might be too weak to ignite the gas. As a result, the spark electrode will make a clicking sound when the burner is turned on, but the burner won’t light. If the spark electrode is defective, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Surface Burner Valve

A stove burner that won’t light could be caused by a faulty surface burner valve. If you don’t hear the gas beginning to flow when you turn on the valve, the valve is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Surface Burner Base

A stove burner that won’t light could be caused by a misaligned or corroded surface burner base. The base holds the orifice holder and electrode in place to allow ignition. Inspect the base for any damage or corrosion and replace the component if necessary.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Surface Burner Orifice Holder

A stove burner that won’t light could be caused by a bent or damaged surface burner orifice holder not allowing the gas to be ignited by the electrode. Inspect the holder to see if it’s misaligned and replace with a new one as required.

Electrolux Oven Self-Cleaning Malfunctions

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Self-Cleaning Malfunctions

  • Failure to heat: one of the most common reasons why your Electrolux oven is failing to heat is because the bake element is effective. This may need to be replaced. Furthermore, it could be caused by a broken oven burner, which means that your oven won’t be able to produce any heat. This burner can be replaced and the good news is that you do not need to replace the entire oven. In addition, you could be dealing with loose door seals. This could result in the oven not being able to close at all with heat escaping. This can also be a relatively minor yet important fix to make. It’s simply a matter of identifying the problem and ensuring that you get the right replacement parts for it.
  • Failure to turn on: this could be due to a faulty power supply or when a circuit breaker has tripped. You may need to replace the fuse and ensure that the power outlet works prior to using your oven.
  • Uneven temperature: if your oven has uneven temperature, you could be dealing with a faulty temperature sensor. This will help you avoid having unevenly cooked food, which incidentally, could also be caused by a faulty convection element or when the oven sensor resistance is incorrect.
  • Burner is producing sparks: a possible cause for this is a defective spark ignition switch, which could produce sparks on the surface of the burner. In such a case, the switch may need to be replaced.
  • You have an overrunning fan: in this case, you could be dealing with a defective relay in the oven control board. Once again, a replacement part could do the trick.
  • Self-cleaning is inefficient: if you face such a situation where your self-cleaning Electrolux oven is cleaning itself inefficiently, you may need professional help to help with your door lock motor or a defective switch assembly.
  • A 400 error code: this is an indication that your oven is not properly connected to the electrical supply. You should first check that the power cord is connected to a power source and see that the main power supply is working. If you are faced with a damaged cable, it will need to be replaced. Alternatively, you may need to check that the wall socket which you’ve plugged your oven into is also working fine.
  • Your oven lamp is not operational: another sign of Electrolux double oven problems is when your lamp is not working. If the light is failing to light up the interior of the oven while it’s working, you may have a defective bulb, which will need to be replaced.
  • Your oven is displaying a 12.00 error code: this is a simple problem, which is indicative of a power failure meaning that the oven’s clock has been reset. Because your oven won’t work until the clock is set properly, you can do this quick fix quickly by yourself by setting the timer to the correct time.
  • Water leaks from the cavity embossment: it’s likely that you’ve put too much water in the cavity embossment and it is leaking out. You should immediately turn off your oven and let it cool down. Afterwards, clean up the spilled water and remove some of the water in the cavity, making sure you do not exceed the maximum quantity allowed as indicated.
  • Water is not boiling in the cavity embossment: the cavity embossment uses water which it then boils to produce steam. This happens if the temperature set is too low. Make sure you keep the temperature to at least 100 degrees Celsius.
  • Your oven is heating up too much: another reason why your Electrolux oven is not working properly could be because a broken thermostat means that your oven is heating up too much. Since the thermostat is responsible for controlling the temperature, a faulty or broken one can lead to higher temperatures than intended. A further issue related to overly high temperatures is the heating element and its wiring connections, which could be faulty. This is an issue that a specialist will need to be called in for.

Electrolux Oven Faulty Light

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Faulty Light

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board

The oven control board is used to send voltage to nearly all of the oven’s electrical components including the lights. If the control board is defective, it may be unable to send voltage to the light bulb or light board, although this is not a common problem. You can use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is not reaching the light socket or light assembly and the light switch tests positive for electrical continuity when tested with a multimeter, then the control board is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Light Assembly

If the oven light is out, the entire light assembly may need to be replaced. Often the light assembly components are not sold separately.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Light Bulb

To determine if the light bulb has burned out, use a multimeter to test it for continuity, or install the bulb into an identical socket to test it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Halogen Lamp

To determine if a halogen lamp has failed, you can use a multimeter to test it for electrical continuity, or install the lamp into an identical socket to test it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Light Socket

Use a multimeter to test for power to the light socket. If the light socket is getting power, but the oven light won’t work, this indicates that the light socket is defective. If the light socket is defective, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Light Housing

If you’ve determined the light bulb has not burned out or the light board appears to be functioning normally, it’s possible that the light housing the bulb or board is installed in is faulty. Use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is reaching the socket or assembly, then it’s likely the light housing is malfunctioning and will need to be replaced.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Light Switch

To determine if the light switch is defective, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the light switch does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad and Control Panel

The touchpad and control panel regulate the power supply to all of the oven components, including the oven light. If the touchpad and control panel assembly is defective, it won’t signal the oven control board to turn on the oven light. However, this is rarely the case. First, test the light bulb and socket. If the light bulb and socket are not defective, the touchpad and control panel assembly might be at fault.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad

The touchpad has a button that controls the oven light. If this button is defective, the touchpad won’t signal the oven control board to turn on the oven light. However, this is rarely the case. First test the light bulb, socket, and switch. If none of these components is defective, the touchpad might be at fault.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Control Board

The control board is used to send voltage to nearly all of the oven’s electrical components including the lights. If the control board is defective, it may be unable to send voltage to the light bulb or light board, although this is not a common problem. You can use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is not reaching the light socket or light assembly and the light switch tests positive for electrical continuity when tested with a multimeter, then the control board is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Transformer

The transformer might be defective. However, this is rarely the case. First check the light bulb, socket, and light switch. If none of these components is defective, the transformer might be at fault. The transformer is not repairable—if the transformer is defective, you must replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Main Control Board

The main control board is used to send voltage to nearly all of the oven’s electrical components including the lights. If the control board is defective, it may be unable to send voltage to the light bulb or light board, although this is not a common problem. You can use a multimeter to determine if power is reaching the light socket or light assembly. If power is not reaching the light socket or light assembly and the light switch tests positive for electrical continuity when tested with a multimeter, then the control board is likely defective and will need to be replaced.

Electrolux Oven Faulty Ignition

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Faulty Ignition

Issue

  • Gas hob – Ignition issues
  • Ignition continually clicking
  • Stuck ignition or clicking noise on the gas hob
  • Gas hob – no ignition

Applies to

  • All gas hobs with electronic ignition

Resolution

Is the ignition or spark on the electrode visible, and is the electrical supply connected?  Ensure that the electric connection is correct by checking the plug status or contracting a fully qualified electrician. Check the fuse box to ensure that the ring main RCD has not caused the electricity to be turned off.

Is ignition continually clicking? 

Turn the appliance off at the main electric switch, wait 60 seconds and turn the appliance back on.

When any button on the gas hob is pressed, all the burners will spark. When the button is released when the burner is lit, the sparking will stop. This is the normal operation of a gas hob

If the spark ignition remains active after releasing the button, check the following:

Check whether the hob has become wet due to water boiling over. Remove the plug from the socket or switch off the group in the fuse box to which the gas hob is connected and dry the plate as much as possible and check whether the sparking has stopped after the group has been switched on again or the plug has been placed in the socket.

Are the burner caps and crowns clean, and also level? If they are not, clean the burners, burner caps and crowns by hand (not in the dishwasher) and dried correctly.  Check that the burner caps and crowns are aligned correctly and straight.

Check that the knob has not been accidentally left pressed by removing the knob from the hob and removing the rubber seal as instructed in the user manual.

Clean the rubber-mounted under the button with a damp cloth. Due to the use of oil and fats during cooking, the rubbers can become greasy, causing the knob to stick to the rubber.

Replace the rubber seal, replace the knob, and check that the ignition returns to normal operation

Is the ignition still continually clicking? There is a possible ignition fault and requires a Technician visit.

Only a Gas Safe Registered engineer can repair a gas appliance.

Contact your manufacturer for either an in-warranty call-out or to arrange a Fixed Price Repair where out of warranty.

Electrolux Oven Temperature Accuracy Problems

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Temperature Accuracy Problems

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Bake Element

When the bake element is heating properly, it glows red hot. If the element does not glow red, this indicates that the element is not heating. Often, if the heating element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the heating element for holes or blisters. To determine if the bake element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the bake element does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Control Board

An oven’s control board will often be used to send voltage to the bake and broil elements or the igniters to heat the oven to the designated temperature. When a temperature sensor senses that the oven has reached the appropriate temperature, the control board should shut off the voltage to the heating circuit. If the control board is defective, the voltage may be shut off too early or not at all, resulting in an inaccurate oven temperature. You should test the temperature sensor and other components first before considering replacing the control board. If you confirm the other components are working properly, you can inspect the board for signs of damage or a shorted component. You can also use a multimeter to test for voltage reaching the bake or broil elements or igniters after reviewing the appliance’s wiring diagram.

Oven calibration needed

The first thing to consider is that oven temperature will fluctuate throughout the cooking process. This is normal. To verify oven temperature, it is best to use a digital thermometer with the wire lead end touching a cast iron skillet to keep the temperature reading even. You can use a dial thermometer, but they are slow to react and are not as accurate as a digital one. Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the oven cycle on and off for at least 20 minutes. Check the temperature. If the oven temperature is over or under by 35 degrees Fahrenheit the oven thermostat, oven sensor, or oven control (depending on the model), is likely bad. If the temperature is within 35 degrees above or below the set temperature, it can likely be recalibrated succcessfully. Refer to your owner’s manual.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Igniter

The igniter draws electrical current through the gas valve to open it. As the igniter weakens over time, it takes longer to open the gas valve. As a result, the oven temperature will drop too low before the burner reignites. The oven temperature should not drop more than 40 degrees Fahrenheit before the igniter relights the burner.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Broil Element

The broil element may have burned out. When the broil element is heating properly, it glows red hot. If the element does not glow red, this indicates that the element is not heating. Often, if the element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the broil element for holes or blisters. To determine if the broil element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Main Control Board

A range’s main control board will often be used to send voltage to the bake and broil elements or the igniters to heat the oven to the designated temperature. When a temperature sensor senses that the oven has reached the appropriate temperature, the control board should shut off the voltage to the heating circuit. If the control board is defective, the voltage may be shut off too early or not at all, resulting in an inaccurate oven temperature. You should test the temperature sensor and other components first before considering replacing the control board. If you confirm the other components are working properly, you can inspect the board for signs of damage or a shorted component. You can also use a multimeter to test for voltage reaching the bake or broil elements or igniters after reviewing the appliance’s wiring diagram.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Temperature Control Thermostat

The temperature control thermostat monitors the temperature inside the oven and cycles on the heat when the oven temperature gets too low. If the temperature control thermostat is not calibrated correctly, it won’t cycle on the heat at the proper time. As a result, the oven temperature might be too high or too low. Due to its complexity, the thermostat is very difficult to test.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Temperature Sensor

The oven sensor works in conjunction with the oven control board to regulate the temperature. The sensor regulates the oven temperature by varying its resistance to electrical current as the oven temperature varies. As the oven temperature rises, the oven sensor creates greater resistance. If the sensor gives the wrong amount of resistance, the oven may not bake evenly. On some models, you can recalibrate the oven control up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit higher or lower. Refer to your owner’s manual for instructions on how to recalibrate the oven control.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board

The oven control board works in conjunction with the oven sensor to regulate the temperature. The sensor regulates the oven temperature by varying its resistance to electrical current as the oven temperature varies. As the oven temperature rises, the oven sensor creates greater resistance. If the sensor gives the wrong amount of resistance, the oven may not bake evenly. Or if the oven control board does not read the sensor resistance correctly, the oven temperature may be inaccurate. On some models, you can recalibrate the oven control up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit higher or lower. Refer to your owner’s manual for instructions on how to recalibrate the oven control.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Convection Element

In a convection oven, the convection element works with the other heating elements to heat the air circulating inside the oven. If the convection element is burned out, the oven won’t heat evenly. To determine if the convection element is burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the convection element does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Convection Motor

In a convection oven, the convection motor drives the convection fan to circulate the air inside the oven. If the convection fan isn’t circulating the air, the oven won’t bake evenly. Try turning the convection fan blade by hand. If the blade is hard to turn, this may indicate that the motor bearings are worn. If the motor bearings are worn, you will have to replace the convection motor. To determine if the motor is defective, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the motor does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Oven Uneven Cooking

Electrolux Oven Major Issues

Electrolux Oven Uneven Cooking

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Bake Element

If the bake element is burned out, the oven will only be heated by the broil element. This will cause the oven to heat unevenly. When the bake element is heating properly, it glows red hot. If the element does not glow red, this indicates that the element is not heating. Often, if the element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the bake element for holes or blisters. To determine if the bake element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the bake element does not have continuity, replace it..

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Relay Board

On some range or oven models, a relay board will be used to send voltage to the broil element or the igniter. If the relay board is defective, the voltage may not be sent to the component and the oven broiler will not work. You can inspect the board for signs of damage or a shorted component. You can also use a multimeter to test for voltage reaching the broil element or igniter after reviewing the appliance’s wiring diagram.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Igniter

The igniter draws electrical current through the oven safety valve bimetal to open the valve letting gas into the oven burner and igniting it. If the oven igniter weakens it can take longer than normal to open the safety valve causing oven temperature issues. To determine if the igniter is defective, observe the igniter when the oven is heating. If the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without igniting the gas flame, this indicates that the igniter is too weak to open the oven safety valve correctly. If the igniter is weak, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Broil Element

If the broil element is burned out, only the bake element will heat the oven. This will cause the oven to heat unevenly. When the broil element is heating properly, it glows red hot. If the element does not glow red, this indicates that the element is not heating. Often, if the element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the broil element for holes or blisters. To determine if the broil element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Temperature Sensor

The oven sensor works with the oven control board to regulate the oven temperature. If there is an oven temperature problem, this sensor might be defective. The sensor can be tested by using an ohm meter. As temperature rises, the resistance measurement also rises. The manufacturer of the oven sensor determines the correct resistance, if we have a testing video associated with this part, watch it to learn how to test the oven sensor. Oven temperature problems can be caused by other things, but this is one of the common causes.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board

The oven control board works in conjunction with the oven sensor to regulate the temperature. The sensor regulates the oven temperature by varying its resistance to electrical current as the oven temperature varies. As the oven temperature rises, the oven sensor creates greater resistance. If the sensor gives the wrong amount of resistance, the oven may not bake evenly. Or if the oven control board does not read the sensor resistance correctly the oven temperature can be inaccurate. On some models, you can recalibrate the oven control up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit higher or lower. Refer to your owner’s manual for instructions on how to recalibrate the oven control.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Convection Element

The convection element works with the other heating elements to heat the air circulating inside the oven. If the convection element is burned out, the oven won’t heat evenly. To determine if the convection element is burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the convection element does not have continuity, replace it.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Door Seal

An oven door seal that is torn or damaged will not provide a tight seal between the door and the oven frame, resulting in the oven having trouble heating up to the correct temperature and preventing the appliance from baking evenly. Inspect the seal for any damage and replace if required.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Control Board

The control board works in conjunction with the oven sensor to regulate the temperature. The sensor regulates the oven temperature by varying its resistance to electrical current as the oven temperature varies. As the oven temperature rises, the oven sensor creates greater resistance. If the sensor gives the wrong amount of resistance, the oven may not bake evenly. Or if the control board does not read the sensor resistance correctly the oven temperature can be inaccurate. On some models, you can recalibrate the oven control up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit higher or lower. Refer to your owner’s manual for instructions on how to recalibrate the oven control.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Convection Motor

The convection motor drives the convection fan to circulate the air inside the oven. The convection oven must circulate the air for the oven to heat evenly. If the convection motor won’t run at all, use a multimeter to test it for continuity. If the motor does not have continuity, replace it. If the convection motor still makes a humming sound, try turning the motor shaft by hand. If the motor shaft does not turn freely, replace the convection motor.

Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Door Gasket

An oven door gasket that is torn or damaged will not provide a good seal between the door and the oven frame, resulting in the oven having trouble heating up to the correct temperature and preventing the appliance from baking evenly. Inspect the gasket for any damage and replace if required.
