  • How to fix, repair the oven when the oven preheat light is flashing and nothing is running?
  • Why is the oven indicator light flashing repeatedly?
  • Why is the preheat indicator light cycling on and off quickly?

Cause:

  • Oven indicator light is bad

Answer:

The oven preheat indicator light on a Wolf Range illuminates while the oven is calling for heat (preheating). It turns off when the oven is not calling for heat (has reached set temperature).

  • The oven indicator light cycles on and off as the thermostat needs more heat to maintain the set temperature.
  • In Gas Ranges, a sound may be heard as the burner ignites to heat the oven.
  • If the oven door is opened, the oven may call for heat immediately.
  • If the oven preheat indicator light is not working properly, service is necessary to expertly diagnose and repair the product. Contact Factory Certified Service to schedule an appointment for repair.
