Electrolux and AEG service in Riga

Electrolux EOD6P and EOF6P series ovens, along with their AEG SteamBake and SteamCrisp counterparts, share a common electronic platform with digital temperature control, a steam generator, and an electromechanical door lock for pyrolysis mode. The most frequent issue is thermocouple drift: over time the K-type thermocouple loses accuracy and the oven begins to overheat or underheat the cavity by 20–40 degrees. We replace the thermocouple with a factory-calibrated unit and verify the readings with a digital thermometer placed directly inside the oven cavity.

The second typical fault is a stuck relay on the control board. The relay switches a 2–3 kW heating element, and under constant heating cycles the internal contacts weld together. The result is that the heating element will not turn off, the oven overheats, and the safety thermostat trips. We resolder the relay, inspect the board traces for burn damage, and restore any compromised sections. The SteamBake steam generator is a separate topic: calcium from Riga tap water clogs the generator channels within 2–3 years and steam stops reaching the cavity. We fully disassemble the generator, remove scale using ultrasonic cleaning, or replace the unit entirely if the channels are irreversibly blocked.

Electrolux EHI and AEG MaxiSense induction cooktops work by generating a high-frequency electromagnetic field through IGBT transistors. Each heating zone has its own IGBT module, resonant capacitor, and driver board. When a mains voltage spike occurs or ventilation is blocked causing overheating, the IGBT transistor fails: the zone clicks on activation, the indicator shows power, but the cookware does not heat. We diagnose each zone individually, replace the blown IGBT, check the resonant capacitor (which often fails simultaneously), and load-test the hob with real cookware.

A separate area of work is cracked ceramic glass replacement. The glass on induction and ceramic hobs cracks from point impact, uneven heating, or thermal shock. Using a hob with cracked glass is categorically unsafe — moisture penetrates to the electronics and can cause a short circuit. We order the glass by exact model article number from a verified supplier, fully disassemble the hob, install the new glass with the factory seal, and verify the unit is watertight. The entire process takes 5–10 working days depending on glass availability in stock.
