Anyone know where to get a replacement timer for this unit? B&D does not

have stock.
Timer failed after a few weeks and stays on until manually turned off.

I wonder how to find out if there is a recall on this product. This is a

fire/injury hazard.

Previous oven was also Black & Decker and used for 20 years. Was still

working when replaced because heating elements started to heat unevenly.

I would not recommend the TRO480BS. Many problems -- those I recall are

door can't be adjusted to close evenly, letting too much air in/out on one
side. Top and bottom heaters don't heat equally - have to turn toast over
to brown both sides, etc.

Thanks.


Considering it is most likely manufactured in China, you may try your luck on
AliExpress. Searching for "oven timer" pops up a decent lot of mechanical
timer units.
You'd have to check the markings on your timer for a match.
And you'd need the patience for it to arrive :-)

Cheers!
