Toaster oven parts

Toaster ovens can toast and bake foods such as bread, waffles and sandwiches at an accelerated speed. Sometimes though, the oven might not turn on or it might not heat properly. When this happens, you may need to replace some parts. Sears PartsDirect has a wide selection of toaster oven repair parts that can help you fix the problem and get back to cooking.

Troubleshooting your toaster oven when it won't power up

  • Ensure that the outlet you're using is a working outlet. Also, check to make sure you plug the cord entirely into the outlet.
  • Check the power cord and replace it if it's frayed or damaged.
  • Unplug the toaster oven and examine the power cord wiring connections on the control. Reconnect any loose wires.
  • Replace the control switch if it's damaged.

Five common toaster oven parts that may need to be replaced

  1. Switch—This part controls the power for the toaster oven. If the switch is not turning on and off when being pushed, then you'll need a new one.
  2. Timer—The timer shuts off the oven when set time elapses. Replace the timer if it doesn’t count down properly.
  3. Thermostat—The thermostat controls the heating source that cooks the food. If you're having an issue with scorched food, you'll likely need to replace it.
  4. Thermal fuse—The fuse prevents electrical overload and protects the main switch from damage. If the toaster oven isn't powering on, then test the fuse.
  5. Heating element—Replace the heating element if it doesn't heat up when it gets current.
