When to Replace
- Oven displays temperature-related error codes such as F3, F3-E1, F3-E2, or F4.
- Oven fails to reach the set temperature or significantly overshoots the target heat.
- Food is consistently undercooked or burnt despite correct settings.
- Resistance testing with a multimeter shows an open circuit or values outside the standard 1100-ohm range.
- The metal probe shows visible signs of warping, corrosion, or physical damage.
Installation Tips
- Disconnect the power supply to the range or oven before starting the repair.
- Access the sensor from either the interior back wall of the oven or by removing the rear access panel.
- Remove the mounting screws (typically 1/4 inch hex head) securing the probe to the oven cavity.
- Carefully pull the wire harness through the hole; if the connector is not accessible, you may need to remove the back panel.
- Unplug the old connector and snap the new sensor harness into place.
- Re-insert the probe and tighten the mounting screws until the unit is flush against the wall.
