It sounds like your KitchenAid toaster oven may be experiencing a malfunction. The blinking blue light could indicate an error code or issue with the oven's control panel. Without more information about the specific model and the exact behavior of the blinking blue light, it is difficult to provide a specific solution. However, you may try unplugging the oven for a few minutes and then plugging it back in to see if that resolves the issue. If the problem persists, it would be best to contact KitchenAid customer service for further assistance or consult the oven's user manual for troubleshooting tips.
I had one with the same problem. I found out that this was due to a defective temperature sensor (in my case anyway). The technical name for this part is NTC glass encapsulated thermistor 86k ohm. It is placed against the outer right wall of the toaster oven. if you look into the oven,there are 2 screws holding it( this device is on the other side of the wall and is connected to the controller via a 2-pin white connector. I replaced it and my toaster oven works fine after. This part costs about 1-2 dollars to replace. You have to remove the top cover of the toaster oven to have access to it.
It sounds like you have the same problem as the Oster 6248 typically develops. The fix is to avoid ever buying anything made by Oster again, because it's all the same ****, made in China, just more overpriced.
I'm afraid you are screwed, because this is the usual failure scenario for this model. Mine just failed the same way, and it's only a couple of years old. I would avoid buying anything Oster in the future, because it's all made in China nowadays. Check out the reviews on this model, and on the 6058, on Amazon. Some people are reporting that the new model is a fire hazard as well.
If there are any good models coming from any other part of the world, I'd be interested in getting one. If you have any companies making such things in South America I'd definitely recommend supporting your local economy. The USA does not make toaster ovens anymore at all, apparently.
