Signs That Your Electric Freestanding Stove Requires Repair

Maintenance is the key to keeping your electric freestanding stove working properly. However, if you notice any of these signs of a broken stove, it's time to call in a repairman:

Burner won't heat after a short time

  • Check the burner for blockages. Take a flathead screwdriver, insert it into the hole of your electric stove, and scrape upward to remove any debris that may be blocking the flame.
  • Check for faulty thermostat or temperature sensor. 
  • If you are using an older model of electric stove, check your thermostat and temperature sensor for damage or corrosion.
  •  This can cause them to malfunction and overheat which will prevent your burner from heating properly after a short amount of time.
  • Inspect circuit board connections on gas valve assembly and check fuses in an electrical box behind range hood (if equipped). 
  • Take note of any loose-looking wires or signs of damage on either end; if either is true then it's possible that replacement parts will need replacing soon as well!

Burner won't heat over a certain temperature

It's not uncommon for stoves to run into problems, but it can be frustrating when they do. If your stove isn't working like it should or you see one or more of the following signs, you may want to take a look at the manual and get some advice from an appliance repair company.

  • Burners won't heat over a certain temperature: This is usually caused by insufficient voltage (or electricity) coming into the unit. It could also mean that there isn't enough fuel being delivered or air flowing through the burners (you'd see flames).
  • Burner lights up but doesn't heat: The problem could be with any number of things—not enough voltage.
  •  lack of gas; too much oxygen causing combustion before reaching optimum temperature; too little airflow through the burner ports causing incomplete combustion etc.

Flickering light on the control panel

The control panel light is an indicator that the stove is operational, and when it flickers, it may be time to replace it. If the light goes on but then turns off again, this could indicate a short in your wiring or a problem with your circuit board. 

To troubleshoot this issue, turn off your Stove Freestanding and unplug it for several minutes before plugging it back in again.

 Contact a certified electrician for further assistance if this doesn't fix the problem.

Conclusion

Your electric freestanding stove is a great investment but requires some maintenance. If you notice any of these problems with your stove, don’t panic—experts can help! 

Contact experts for professional service by one of the certified technicians and get back to enjoying your electric freestanding stove in no time.
