  If the convection fan in your Viking oven is running but there's no heat, the issue could be due to defective oven wiring, a faulty convection element, a problem with the oven control board, or issues with the bake or broil element. You should repair or replace any defective wiring, test the convection element, verify the relay operation, wiring, and inputs. Consider replacing the bake or broil element.

  If your Viking oven won't self-clean, but bake and broil work, the oven lights are on, and the door locks, but the clean indicator light is off, it could be due to an open door latch switch, an open control board, or defective oven wiring. Replace the door latch assembly, replace the control board, or repair or replace defective wiring.
