Oven and Cooktop Repair Atlanta, GA
Manufacturers have included many innovations and improvements in kitchen ovens and cooktops during the last twenty to twenty-five years. These include the extensive use of microprocessors, touch and proximity sensors used in control interfaces, infrared cooking systems, more accurate temperature controls, and new types of cooking surfaces. As a result, ovens and cooktops can deliver more accurate cooking temperatures and present more contemporary design options. These new appliances can be safer for home use.
However, much of this new kitchen innovation is based on electronics, and electronic systems are vulnerable to heat, which is naturally present when any cooking appliance is used. Although the more reputable manufacturers use higher quality components, all these electronics will break down in time. How soon this happens is often determined by how much use a particular appliance receives.
In general, any cooking appliance in use for ten or more years can be expected to exhibit some problems. These electronic failures can manifest in various ways, from more subtle inaccurate temperature delivery to more obvious problems. Sometimes, a repair can be as simple as replacing a switch, while adjusting or replacing an electronics board may be necessary in other cases.
Since nearly every case differs, our initial approach will always include careful testing and diagnostics. After this, we will provide an accurate and fair estimate for parts and labor. We take pride in offering quality service for gas or electric range, oven, or cooktop. If the oven or cooktop needs attention, please don’t hesitate to contact Mr. Fixer Appliance Repair.

Top Atlanta Oven Problems Technicians Repair

Oven Isn’t Heating Up
An oven might fail to heat up due to two significant reasons.
Reason 1: A Faulty Igniter can Cause a Gas Oven to Stop Heating
Solution: The technician will test the gas burners to determine if gas flows to them and can ignite. That can help cross out the possibility of an issue with the gas line, which could be a more serious issue. They will also set the oven gas temperature and note a few faint click sounds before you hear the usual ‘whoosh’ gas sound when lit. A new igniter is likely needed if the usual sounds are absent.
Cause 2: Worn Out or Broken Heating Elements in Electric Oven
Solution: The technician will check if the heating elements glow dimly or bright red. If not, they will need replacing. The repair is relatively simple. Screw back the screws to hold the new part in place.

Oven is Heating, but not to the Right Temperature
If the oven undercooks the food or takes longer than usual, it could mean it isn’t heating to the right temperature.
Cause 1: The oven fails to heat to the right temperature if the temperature sensor is faulty or touching the oven wall.
Solution: The technician will check the temperature sensor to ensure it isn’t touching the oven wall. If it does, it cannot measure the correct internal oven temperature. They will adjust the sensor to position it off the wall if it does touch. If that doesn’t solve the heating problem, the technician can use an ohmmeter to assess the temperature sensor to determine if it’s functioning or faulty. When an oven’s internal temperature rises, the resistance of the temperature sensor should also rise. If faulty, replace the temperature sensor with the correct part.
Cause 2: If the oven is still not heating to the right temperature after the above cooktop repairs, it might need recalibration.
Solution: The technician can use an oven thermometer to test the oven’s accuracy. They will preheat the oven and take the oven temperature readings several times. The technician will average the temperature readings; the closer the average is to the expected temperature, the more accurate it is. If the variance between the two figures is significant, repairs are needed.

Uneven Cooking
It needs repair if the oven bakes, roasts, or toasts unevenly.
Cause 1: The technician will check if the temperature sensor and heating elements function properly by preheating the oven and setting an oven-proof thermometer inside, as described above. These sensors might cause the oven not to cook evenly if faulty.
Solution: The technician will preheat the oven and check whether the heating elements glow red. They will also ascertain that the temperature sensor’s resistance increases as the oven’s temperature rises and replace the faulty components.
Cause 2: If the oven is new, it could be that it cooks differently from the previous one. The cookware and rack placement can also impact how an oven performs.
Solution: Ensure the cookware or baking pans are reflective for even cooking in the oven. Replace or deep clean discolored baking cookware. Note how the oven works and adjust cooking times and temperatures accordingly. For instance, rotate the food while baking or roasting or adjust rack heights when cooking specific foods to ensure the food cooks evenly.
