F3 fault code in oven mode--problem with oven...

where is sensor located--cannot find schematic diagram for sensor location

Comment by xbikeman2, posted on Mar 02, 2008

I found it to the left of the door just below the upper element. I actually didn't have the patience to wait for your answer. I found it by following the wiring diagram. But if I had been patient, your answer would have been perfect.
Thankyou.....xbikeman2

to tech 17: Thanks for the info. The wires entering the sensor were burnt off at the sensor. But if it happens again, I'll know what to look for. Thanks again--xbikeman2

im here if you need any more help try cleaning all the connectors to the clock or eoc before replacing it and if there a mylar ribbon going to the clock reply and ill tell you how to clean that if you can use a meter you can test the sensor before replacing it as the code isn't absolute like if there is resistance between the connectors and the probe the fault code will say bad because it cant communicate see so it says bad probe
