Of course  steam and water in general seem to be the cause of problems with Anova and CSO. There's leakage issues, clogging issues, computer/update issues all of which are related directly or indirectly to the steam function.

 

Another good reason why you own a Blue Star range and me a Wolf.  On/off, no circuit boards to burn out, and on those (here at least, very rare) occasions where the electricity fails, I can still light it with a match.

 

It's not easy making inexpensive consumer/prosumer products to match the expertise and precision a real combi-oven might provide.

I have a problem with my BSOA and would like to know if anyone else has had the same experience and if so, what did they do about it.  When I turn it on to, say, bake at 350F and set the timer for 30 minutes the timer keeps flashing.  Maybe 5 to 10 minutes into the pre-heat function the oven quits.  Everything just shuts off.

I have not had any trouble with mine.  Sounds like it's overheating.

The door might not be closing properly. Does your unit's door close normally with some tension? The door has a coiled spring and a sensor. If the spring is broken, then the sensor may not go to the correct position. This will deactivate the controller since it thinks the door is not closed.

 

A replacement spring is inexpensive and can be replaced easily. There's a few YouTube videos on this topic.

I found a video that shows the possible solution

 

As you can see, the switch can also be the issue.
