Viking Convection Fan Fault Error Code

Error Code Explained

What Does the Viking Convection Fan Fault Error Code Mean?

Viking wall ovens with TruConvec convection use a fan and third heating element at the back of the oven cavity to circulate heated air evenly. A failed convection fan motor results in uneven baking, longer cook times, and failure of the convection mode to provide the expected performance improvement over standard bake.

Common Causes of the Viking Convection Fan Fault Error Code

1
