This could be a problem with the temperature sensor, the gas igniter or the heating element.
  1. Check the temperature sensor. It shouldn't be touching the inside wall of the oven.
  2. Use an ohmmeter to make sure the sensor is functional. The resistance should rise as the temperature of the oven increases.
  3. If the sensor isn't working, replace it.
  4. Verify that the heating element or gas igniter is working, and replace it if not.
  5. If everything's been checked or replaced, recalibrate the oven.
  6. Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Check the temperature inside the oven with an oven thermometer after 20 minutes, and every 20 minutes thereafter for the next 90 minutes to two hours.
  7. Add up the sum of the temperature readings, and divide by the number of readings you took, to get the average temperature of the oven.
  8. Adjust the oven's temperature dial accordingly.
