F3 Error Code (by 5 users)


posted by mok54321 on Oct 12, 2007


This is a 15 year old Kenmore wall over that I can't even find on the parts list anymore.

 

Age old question is should we fix it or just go down and buy a new one?

 

I am a moderately capable do-it-yourselfer.  Is this something that I might be able to fix myself?

 

From what I gather this most likely is a thermostat or sensor problem.

 

Any help or advice is appreciated.

Turn it on to bake and it runs for awhile then the F3 error code beeps. Sometimes works sometimes doesn't? So frustrating, someone please help.

I know what you mean. I was cooking with this appliance tonight and suddenly it displayed an f-3 code. My advantium oven is less than 8 months old. Not sure how this happened or how to fix the problem. In order to sleep tonight (the constant beeping) I had to shut power off at the breaker pannel. Is this representative of the the type of quality that GE stands for???? I am sooo frustrated. I cook with my advantium oven all the time and love the dual abilities of this appliance. Like I said this is brand new and to have the f-3 code which apparently (from what I read) is a failed key pad. I am very dissapointed and am begining to think about pulling my stock from this company!
