Inglis Oven fan won't turn off

When your Inglis oven fan won't turn off, first allow for a normal cooling period. The cooling fan can run for more than an hour after the oven is switched off, especially after a high-temperature cycle, to protect internal components. If the oven fan keeps running after the oven has cooled completely, the most likely cause is a defective oven control board, control board, or main control board with a relay stuck closed and continuously powering the fan motor. Check the wiring diagram before replacing a board because control boards are often misdiagnosed. Next, test the high-limit thermostat with a multimeter. A failed thermostat can continue sending voltage to the fan even when the oven is cool. This can cause the oven fan not turning off or the oven fan to run continuously. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use the wiring diagram for your model. Enter your Inglis range, stove, or oven model number to find the exact replacement part, including the correct control board, thermostat, or high-limit thermostat.

01 - Inglis Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board

The oven control board has relays that regulate power to the bake, broil and fan circuits according to the user settings and sensor input. If one of these relays shorts out, the control board may send continuous voltage to the oven fan. However, this is rarely the case. Before replacing the control board, first check the oven thermostats. If an oven thermostat fails, it may cause the oven fan to run continuously.

02 - Inglis Range/Stove/Oven Control Board

If the oven fan is not shutting off, a relay on the control board may be stuck closed sending constant power to the oven fan. Check the wiring diagram first before replacing the board. Control boards are often misdiagnosed.
Common

03 - Inglis Range/Stove/Oven Main Control Board

The main control board has relays that send voltage to the fan motor. If one of the control board relays shorts closed, the control board may send continuous voltage to the fan. If the fan continues to run after the oven is turned off and cooled down, the main control board is likely defective. If the control board is defective, replace it.

04 - Normal Cooling Down Period

The oven cooling fan may run well over an hour after the oven is shut off to cool down the components. The hotter the temperature was set the longer the cooling fan needs to run to cool off the oven. This is normal.

05 - Inglis Range/Stove/Oven High Limit Thermostat

The high limit thermostat sends voltage to the oven fan as the oven heats up. If the high limit thermostat is defective, it may keep sending voltage to the oven fan after the oven has cooled down. To determine if the high limit thermostat is at fault, use a multimeter to test the thermostat for continuity. If the high limit thermostat does not have continuity, replace it.
Less Common

06 - Inglis Range/Stove/Oven Thermostat

The thermostat sends voltage to the oven fan as the oven heats up. If the thermostat contacts are stuck closed, the thermostat may continue to send voltage to the oven fan after the oven has cooled down. To determine if the thermostat is at fault, use a multimeter to test the thermostat for continuity. If the thermostat shows continuity at any temperature, this indicates that the thermostat is defective. If the thermostat is defective, replace it.
