Your oven fan is an essential part for maintaining the function of your appliance, so when this becomes faulty, you're sure to notice a problem straight away. The telltale sign that your oven fan is not working is unevenly cooked food. Because your oven fan is responsible for distributing the heat evenly inside your oven cavity, to ensure your meals are cooked accurately. So what could be preventing your oven's fan from working?
Why is the Oven Fan Not Working?
Faulty oven fan performance is usually due to one of two parts that your fan relies upon in order to function correctly:
The Oven Fan Motor
If your oven fan is not working, it is likely that your oven's fan or fan motor has become faulty. These parts are the main components of your oven fan, and they help to ensure your food is cooked evenly. Some signs that these parts have failed include excess noise coming from the fan, along with the element successfully heating, but proving ineffective in circulating this heat around your oven.

The Oven Fan Element
Another common cause for your oven fan not working is oven fan element failure. You may pick up on the faulty element if your oven appears to be working fine, but fails to generate heat. You may also notice some visual signs that your oven fan element has failed, such as burning or bulging. For instructions on how to replace your faulty fan oven element, click here.
