Oven was overshooting temperature significantly. You set it to 350f and it shoots up to 500f on an external thermostat. REPLACED thermostat with new one. Costumer still saying it over shoots about 150f. Is there any udjustability? There is no temp sensor only self clean timer thermostat probe and bake thermostat probe from the thermostat(replaced)

Hello
Yes, these thermostats can be calibrated. See the service manual link below. Then go to page #19 for calibration instructions. Matt Ace technician

  • Have you verified the temperature yourself ? Is this a customer with a dial thermometer telling you the temperature is off ? If so many times we find customers with cheap dial based thermometers that are significantly off on temperature readings. You need to check it with a digital meter with a temperature probe to watch the on and off cycle. If you checked it with am accurate probe, I would try to adjust the temperature screw counterclockwise to decrease the temperature. If that does not work, you may have a defective new thermostat.

    Tested the thermostat and sure enough anything above 300 results in a temperature 150f higher than set temp. The programming attached file is for the duel fuel unit not this fully gas unit. I checked the whole thermostat and no udjustment screw anywhere. It’s almost as if the knob is incorrect.

    Checked if it’s the correct knob because the customer just mentioned he replaced the knob about the same time it started malfunctioning….. Relabeling new knob then testing for accuracy to confirm it was the knob.
  • Lets hope it is the knob, please let us know. Thanks
