Electrolux Range making a loud noise

When your Electrolux range is making a loud noise, the fan blade is the most likely cause. A bent blade can slide on the shaft, rub against the housing, or become damaged, creating an oven fan noise or rattling sound. Inspect the blade for warping, cracks, or movement and replace it if needed. A faulty spark ignition switch or spark ignition switch and harness is the next likely problem, especially if you hear a sudden "whoosh" from a gas burner. Gas that does not ignite promptly can build up and flash. A worn fan motor can also cause an oven making noise because bad bearings, a damaged blower, or a loose blade may create grinding or humming sounds. If the noise occurs during gas ignition, check the oven igniter. An igniter that glows for more than 90 seconds before lighting, or has no continuity, may be weak or defective. Finally, a failing convection motor can rattle or allow the convection fan to contact the housing. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts. Enter your Electrolux range model number to find the exact fan blade, motor, igniter, or switch for your appliance.

01 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Fan Blade

The fan blade may be bent or sliding on the shaft and rubbing on the housing. Inspect the fan blade. If the fan blade is bent or damaged it will need to be replaced.

02 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch

If the gas is not lighting correctly, it can build up and flash, causing a “whoosh” noise on the burner. This can potentially be caused by a faulty spark ignition switch only working intermittently. You can use a multimeter to test the spark ignition switch or switches for electrical continuity to determine if the component is functioning normally.

03 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Spark Ignition Switch and Harness

If the gas is not lighting correctly, it can build up and flash, causing a “whoosh” noise on the burner. This can potentially be caused by a faulty spark ignition switch and harness only working intermittently. You can use a multimeter to test the spark ignition switches for electrical continuity to determine if the assembly is functioning normally.

04 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Fan Motor

The fan motor turns the fan blade to circulate the air. The fan motor is often sold as an assembly. If the fan motor bearings are bad, or the fan blade or blower is damaged, the fan motor will need to be replaced.
Highly Likely

05 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Igniter

If the gas is not being ignited promptly, it can build up and flash causing a small "boom" noise in the oven or a "whoosh" noise on the burner. A faulty igniter could be the cause of the gas not igniting promptly. To determine if the igniter is defective, observe the igniter when the oven is on. If the igniter glows for more than 90 seconds without igniting the gas flame, this indicates that the igniter is too weak to open the valve. If the igniter is weak, replace it. If the igniter does not glow at all, use a multimeter to test the igniter for continuity. If the igniter does not have continuity, replace it.
Highly Likely

06 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Convection Motor

The convection motor drives the convection fan to circulate the air inside the oven. The convection oven must circulate the air for the oven to heat evenly. If the motor bearings are bad the motor may rattle or the fan may hit the housing. If the convection fan motor shaft wobbles, or the motor is making a loud noise, replace the convection motor.
