Hello Gene and thanks for your reply, the oven never reaches a temp set neither on bake or broil mode, the fan does work well on bake mode but veeeryy slow to even warm up. When i try to put on broil mode the heat piece is not really hot even after 10 minutes on broil mode. To give you the whole picture, i move to Argentina and brought this oven and other things, we connected it to a 5000w voltage converter so it would work, my friend has the exact same oven connected in his house and works fine. When the installer came he connected te oven directly to 220v, it turned on fine but when he tried the microwave it teipped because that part of the unit runs on 120v i m guessing, the he replaced the breaker/fuse and everything was fine. But i installed it and never really teied if it actually heated up the way it should. He took the oven to his shop and test the thermostat or temp sensor and sais is fine. Please we would appretiatte any tips Thank you

Do you have the instructions and the wiring diagram for the converter you connected the oven to? If you do, can you posted it?
