Hotpoint oven how do i adj the temp in oven?? WE HAVE THE SAME OVEN, RGB745. OVEN WILL NOT STAY AT TEMP. THAT WAS SET. IF YOU SET IT AT 350 IT GOES TO 425. REPLACED THERMOSTAT THAT ACTUALLY IS THE WHOLE DIGITAL READOUT PANEL. COST $75. THE OVEN SENSOR READING WAS 1080 OHMS WHICH IS PRETTY CLOSE. PREHEAT LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER IT REACHES THE SET TEMP. DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TRY? APPRECIATE ANY SUGGESTIONS

Go to the manufacture site search for manuals on their site for the oven you have... usually PDF format

Hi

This means a loose/broken wire on the oven temp sensor or the oven temp. sensor itself is bad and should be replaced. To solve this issue test the oven temp. sensor, it should read between 1080-1120 ohms, if the rating is more then that and the door appears to be closing fine then it is the control board that is bad and should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

Replace the oven temperature sensor.

If you have a ohm meter you can ohm out the temp sensor. It has a harness that connects in the back. Unplug it and it should read around 1100 ohms at room temp. It sounds to me more like the ignitor itself. It has to draw so many amps to open up the gas valve. Check the sensor first. If it ohms out, change the ignitor. I think your problem will go away. Tenbears.

This means that your oven temp sensor has failed. There is no way to fix the sensor. You have to replace. The f2 means that your oven has reached its heaeting limit and it shuts down for safety. Replace oven temp sensor and it wil fix it.

You have not responded to my clarification request, so I'm guessing that you have resolved this issue. If not, let me know if I can still be of assistance.

Press the function you want - say bake - the set the temperature by pressing the plus sign (+) to increase the temp to that which you desire then press start

Regards

erratic temp in oven can also be a bad oven ignitor, usually to low of a temp and not able to stay at temp, too long to preheat.replace the bake ignitor

sounds like abad oven ignitor issue, repalce hte ignitor nad it should light everytime

Sears Kenmore Electric Wall OVen, Mod.#9114012192 purchased in 1993. Set oven for 425 degrees, reaches set temperature, stays on about 10 minutes and temp. display goes out and oven starts cooling down. Will not stay on desired temp.to cook. Can you tell me what my problem is? Thanks. Doug.
