Magic Chef Range making a loud noise
When your Magic Chef range is making a loud noise, the source is usually a damaged fan blade, an ignition problem, or a failing motor. A bent or loose fan blade can slide on its shaft and rub against the housing, causing oven fan noise, rattling, or a scraping sound. On a gas range, a faulty spark ignition switch or spark ignition switch and harness can delay ignition, allowing gas to build up and flash with a noticeable whoosh. A failing fan motor can also make an oven humming noise when heating, especially when its bearings are worn or the blower is damaged. If the noise is a small boom in the oven, the igniter may be weak and taking too long to ignite the gas. A convection motor with worn bearings or a wobbling shaft can make the convection fan rattle or hit the housing. Inspect the fan blade, and test the spark ignition switch or igniter with a multimeter when appropriate. Always shut off gas and power before servicing. Enter your Magic Chef range model number to find the exact replacement fan blade, motor, ignition switch, harness, igniter, or convection motor for your appliance.

02 - Magic Chef 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 - Magic Chef 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 - Magic Chef 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 - Magic Chef 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 - Magic Chef 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.
