I don't know how you could know exactly what it was without at least disassembling to the control board. Unless there is something obvious like what @MarcusF is saying, where you could see a leg was missing.

Which is it?

i think it was fixed

In the problem as given, there’s no fix… yet. Before we can even go there, we have to pinpoint the precise problem. Which can be done in this case.

you checked the wall plug and found a bad neutral or no l2. 

Can’t check the “wall plug” because this is a wall oven and the power supply is hardwired inside. So no plug. Wouldn’t bother with that in this case even if there was. No need. 

Neutral is not even in question here because I already have proof it’s good. How did I know that Neutral is good?

turn on convection bake and see if cooling turns on,

The cooling fan circulates air in the control plenum so it runs regardless of heat cycle selected. You're thinking of the convection fan. Does that help?

pressing the convection option on the control would clear the L2 if the convection fan runs

... AND if the convection element actually heats up. I'd want to see multiple L2 loads run... or not run... to be able to draw a conclusion. With multiple heating elements, it gets ambiguous to know which is operating without being able to see amps on those circuits. But then I have to disassemble. I'm too lazy for that. If only there were another L2 load that I could eyeball-verify....hmmm... O, who will save the laziest tech in the world from his quandry? 

Neutral is already cleared because:

We know neutral is good because you were able to see the code

turning on convection bake and see it he convection fan would come on. That would clear N and L1,

Convection fan does not use L1. 

And no need to focus on convection. Lots of other ways to skin this cat.

Try the halogen lights. The transformer needs L2.

What do I need to do to try the lights? Should I pop out one of the halogen lights and stuck my sniffer in there?

Open the door and notice lights aren't working because it's missing L2?

That’s the spirit of a true lazy tech!

So I open the door and no lights. What do I conclude at this point? 

Just now, Vince Neibert said:

I’m not familiar with this oven, but however you turn the lights on that’s what I’d do.

The schematic tells you everything going on in the circuit, no special operation instructions needed.

If they light up L2 is good.

What if the lights don’t come on? What do I conclude? Or can I conclude anything?  

2 minutes ago, Vince Neibert said:

I guess you could also have a bad transformer or a bad board

With no lights and no cooling fan, both L2 and Neutral loads, inop, then I would need BOTH a bad transformer AND a bad board. How likely is that?

Instead, what’s my next move that may even fix the problem?

Flip the breaker?

That’s what I’d do!

In fact, that was the exact problem on this case.

Really? You guys know you can click on the image for a larger view. It’s plenty big for detailed viewing.

Could you just jump the relay for the cooling fan motor and see if it is working properly? Take an amp draw to verify against any spec given?

Way too much work! Remember, I’m the laziest tech alive. I’m too lazy to even open my tool bag if I don’t need to.
