We do not recommend you to repair your oven yourself. It is better to entrust it to professionals. Then you can be sure that your oven will be in good working order. The Most Common Oven Error Codes and Fixes.

If the cause of the device malfunction is not addressed in time, it can lead to poor oven performance and reduced safety. To find out which errors require professional help, refer to your unit’s manual which is available on the manufacturer’s website or inside the instruction manual.
