It is a new stove -- I guess it could be the EBT -- but I've been experimenting a bit and I can get the sound by opening and closing the door -- wasn't happening right when we got the oven -- it is as if some relatively small metal piece is rattling ... besides the EBT are there any other pieces that could be loose internally?Is this a new stove. Wondering if you are hearing the EBT?
It is the EBT flapper, perfectly normal.It is a new stove -- I guess it could be the EBT -- but I've been experimenting a bit and I can get the sound by opening and closing the door -- wasn't happening right when we got the oven -- it is as if some relatively small metal piece is rattling ... besides the EBT are there any other pieces that could be loose internally?
just in the rear?The side pieces are 'loose' but should be fairly secure and everything should be square, the baffle should sit square and be fully seated along the rear.
I'm at work (not Thanksgiving over here) but when I get home I'll take a look again ... from what I saw last night I think that the baffle is slightly askew - it feels solidly in place but the right back corner isn't quite in place, which in turn means that the right front corner isn't sitting on the rail at all ... I didn't check the retaining pin but will ... as far as the siderail goes - its not that its not straight, just that it moves a lot - but that could be due to the fact that the weight of the baffle isn't sitting on it fully ...? maybe this picture helps you can see that the baffle is off the rail...In the rear rear it sits seated and sealed onto the secondary air supply tube(metal box running up between bricks).
The baffle sits on top of the siderails and should look square and lay flat espescially because your stove is new and presumably not warped from overfiring.
Is your baffle retaining pin in place at the rear of the baffle/firebox?
If one of your siderails looks slightly askew. I'd try straightening it myself by hand first before calling out the installer.
Post a pic if you're wondering.
Thanks - so unpin it, shift it and square everything and then re-pin it ... got it.Yup. Do exactly as Mr. Hogwildz has instructed.
Here's a picture(not great) of my baffle sitting along the siderails.

Nope, leave pin in place, and slide the baffle so it is even between the side rails it rests on. Sometimes mine shifts when loading it up against the bottom of the baffle, and when it is hot, I just use my poker tip into one of the front holes and gently tap it over whichever direction I want it to go.Thanks - so unpin it, shift it and square everything and then re-pin it ... got it.
