Baxter E76 Error Code

What does Baxter E76 mean?

E76 is a red hood ventilation error on gas ovens only. It indicates a possible hood switch failure, and heat is disabled. As a red error it blocks any heating or bake/cook cycle until resolved and cannot be dismissed. Where E75 reports a missing hood signal, E76 escalates to a suspected switch failure, so the control stops heating entirely until a servicer addresses it.
