Frigidaire Oven Troubleshooting Guide
Frigidaire The oven Won’t Turn ON
If your Frigidaire electric oven is not turning on, you can troubleshoot yourself by following these simple steps.
Test the controls
Check the controls for your oven's temperature are set properly. You can check the company's manual which you get with the unit for instructions to set the controls.
Check the fuses or circuit breakers in your house. If the outlet does not work after testing it with another appliance, try to plug the microwave in a different outlet.
Check the power supply
Electric ovens require 240 Volts AC for smooth operation. If you notice that your outlet is not providing sufficient voltage, you have to verify the fuse box and circuit breaker. Check if the blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker might be caused the problem. If there is power at the outlet source, it indicates the problem with the oven itself
Check the hinges and door hooks to make sure the door is closing properly. Look to see whether a small piece of food is clinging to the door, preventing it from closing all the way. Check the release mechanism and the rotating plate to make sure they can move freely as well.
Plugin the microwave and start the bag of microwave popcorn inside. If the lights go on but it is not producing heat, listen and try to hear whether the unit sounds the way it usually does. If it does not, there might be problems with the circuit board. This will need to be repaired by a certified Frigidaire professional.
Check the display that shows the time and power. If the display is flickering but it does not alter the operation of the microwave, it is not a problem. If, however, the lights flicker and your food is not heating, there may be a problem in the microwave cabinet.
Listen for buzzing sounds. If there is a buzzing sound and no heat is being produced, you may have to get a new magnetron, power diode, or high-voltage capacitor. These can be purchased from a Frigidaire retailer.
Look at the handle on the door. The most common complaint about all models of the Frigidaire microwave, according to Consumeraffairs.com, was cracked or broken door handles. Frigidaire will replace faulty handles while the oven is under warranty. In many cases, they will replace the handle even after the warranty expires for a "reasonable" amount of time.
