GR Gas Range Oven Preheat Indicator Light Flashing


  • Loose wiring to oven indicator light
  • Oven indicator light is bad


  • Oven indicator light turns on and off during cooking when the oven is on
  • Does the red preheat oven indicator flash on an R or GR Series Gas Range?
  • Why is the oven indicator light flashing repeatedly?
  • Why is the preheat indicator light cycling on and off quickly?
  • Gas Range red indicator for ovens flashes when unit idle or off

Steps to Verify Issue:

The oven preheat indicator light on a Wolf range illuminates while the oven is calling for heat. If the oven indicator light flashes repeatedly or cycles on and off quickly, the flame was lost and cannot reignite.

  1. Turn oven selector bezel off.
  2. Reset unit's power at circuit breaker.
  3. Test unit's operation while making sure the oven door is closed tightly.
