Magic Chef Stove turns off on its own

When your Magic Chef stove turns off by itself, the touchpad is the most likely cause, especially when some buttons respond intermittently or not at all. A faulty touchpad can interrupt normal operation and may need replacement. On an electric range, inspect the power cord and terminal block next. Loose or burned connections can overheat, melt wire insulation, and cause the stove to shut off. Replace damaged parts, and have a licensed electrician inspect a burned receptacle. A failing control board may also cause the stove to turn off by itself if a surface element starts working again after you turn its dial off and back on or select another heat setting. Check the power cord and terminal block before replacing the board. Next, inspect the wire connectors and harness for loose connections, breaks, or burn marks. Less commonly, a failed relay board or main control board can interrupt power to heating elements and other components. Disconnect power before testing or repairing your Magic Chef range. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement touchpad, power cord, terminal block, wire connector, relay board, or control board for your stove.

01 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad

If a stove turns off on its own, determine if some of the buttons on the touchpad respond intermittently or not at all. If so, it's likely the touchpad is faulty and should be replaced.

02 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Power Cord

If the power cord connections in the terminal block on your electric range are not secure the wire can overheat, burning the connections on the terminal block, and melting the coating on the wires. Check to ensure the connections are tight and not burnt. If the terminal block connectors are burnt, the terminal block should be replaced. If the power cord terminal connectors are burnt or damaged, the power cord should be replaced. If the power cord prongs are burnt, a new power cord should be installed and the receptacle checked and replaced if necessary by a licenced electrician.

03 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Control Board

If the stove surface element starts working again when the surface element dial or control is turned off and back on or to a different heat setting, it's likely that the control board is the cause of the stove turning off on its own. You should confirm that the surface element control is functioning normally and the appliance's power cord and terminal block are in good condition before considering a control board replacement.

04 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Wire Connector

Inspect the wiring and connectors, especially coming from the main power cord. A loose connection can cause intermittent power failure. Inspect the wiring for breaks or burn marks. Repair wiring as needed.

05 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Relay Board

Some ovens are equipped with a relay board. The relay board has several relays which control the electrical current to the heating element, and other components of the stove. If one or more of the relays on the relay board has failed, the oven may shut off. If the relay board is defective, replace it.

06 - Magic Chef Range/Stove/Oven Main Control Board

The main control board sends power to all the components in the stove. If the control board connections are loose, or burnt, or the control board is turning off on its own, one of the relays or other components may be bad and the control will need to be replaced.
