I have a magic chef electric wall oven and it flashes an error code of F3 when I try to bake something. How do I fix it and what does it mean?

This error means your temperature sensor (probe) has failed and needs to be replaced.

Hi
Thanks for using FixYa. Error code F1 means failed thermistor/transistor in control. To resolve this issue you'll have to replace the Electronic range control (ERC). Please rate the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.

Thanks

this could be a an open probe or shorted probe connection.you need to check your temp probe harness to your main board.
there is a chance that you need to replace your temp probe.
last thing would be to replace the EOC

Self clean on some older models can cause some issues. F-3 is a sensor error. This could have been damaged by high heat or in some cases if the sensor is ok, the control doesn't know it's there.

i think f3 error code has something to do with the temp probe maybe it is the problem. the temp probe is located if you open the door directly in the back wall. it looks like a prong. should read 1100ohms the f2 error code though usually has something to do with the keypad i would check all the connections maybe they are loose.

sounds like you have a bad wire connection someplace in the oven.
