# La Cornue range: an unusually hot fascia points at the range’s cooling fan, and that is a repair

### What the appliance is actually doing

This is the most specific and least known entry in the whole of La Cornue’s troubleshooting section, and it is worth reading before you decide a hot control panel is normal. The range is cooled by a fan. If the fascia becomes excessively hot while the range is in use, the guide says the cooling fan may have failed and directs the owner to arrange for its repair. Hot knobs are a separate and normal matter; an excessively hot fascia is a component that has stopped.

### Quoted rather than interpreted

> 
The range is cooled by a fan. If the fascia becomes excessively hot when the range is in use then the cooling fan may have failed.

From the CornuFé 110 dual fuel installation and user guide (U107101-21e), in a User Guide & Service Manual downloaded from La Cornue’s own site. Nothing on this page is decoded beyond what that sentence says.

### Which machines this one applies to

La Cornue gas and dual fuel ranges. La Cornue publishes three codes in the whole of its US documentation and its Château guide carries no troubleshooting section, so a behavior missing from this archive is not proof that your appliance cannot do it — the maker simply never wrote a table for it. What its guides do document, they document in sentences, and those are on this site under the maker’s own wording. The model number, and which top the range was ordered with, settle what any of it means.

### What to do about it

- Compare it with how it used to be. This is a change, not a state.
- Listen for the cooling fan while the oven is running — an absence you can hear is the diagnosis.
- Note whether it happens with the oven, the broiler or both.
- Do not keep using it heavily. The fan exists to protect the controls behind that fascia.
- Have it looked at rather than lived with. This is one of the few conditions the maker itself escalates immediately.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [diagnostic visit](/services/diagnostic-visit/), and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 614-3699](tel:+13056143699) and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
