Previous error code indicated that the oven temperature sensor needed replacing. So, I did that. When I hooked the oven back up to it's power source the broiler part of the oven cam on and stayed on. I pushed the cancel button and played around with the clock...nothing. So, I had to disconnect the oven from it's power source just to turn off the broiler.

It sounds like the module is momentarily losing power when the bake relay clicks off. Does it do the same thing when you use broil?
Post back with the complete model number and I will try to find the wiring diagram for it and we will walk through checking it.
Thanks/Mike
SOURCE: F2 error code
Similar problem. When baking over 400 degrees we get the F2 code that can only be reset by cycling the power at the breaker. Replaced the electonics to no avail. I'm thinking its the cooling fan located between the oven and microwave (upper unit) it never comes on which may cause a separate temp switch to generate the F2... but I'm not a pro. :)
SOURCE: Oven Overheating with Fault Code F1 displayed after reaching temperature.
it varies first thing to do is check the connections if there is a plastic ribbion on yours can clean it with a pencial eraser unplug the wires and plug them back up a couple of times in case there is some restiance there now by sensor i assume you are talking the oven probe some where on your range you will find a techsheet that will tell you how to ohm the probe and they dont always
show the right code that should help let me know what you find ill be here
SOURCE: Error code f2 after replacing sensor.
If the sensor utilizes a plug, it is not uncommon for the plug connection to become intermittent. Cut the plug off the sensor and the wire harness. Directly 'hard wire' the sensor wires to the harness wires using CERAMIC wire nuts.. (no polarity here, sensor is a resistive element) regular plastic wire nuts will melt. If problem persists thereafter, the electronic control may have to be replaced.
SOURCE: Broiler won't turn off. Error code F-3
The broiler won't turn off even when you press the "Off/cancel" button? It sounds like the broiler control relay is stuck shut. The F3 code means the oven temperature sensor has failed, this probably happened because the oven got too hot when the broiler was stuck on. There is fail-safe thermal fuse that will blow if the oven gets too hot, so the oven won't melt down but you should leave the unit off so you don't blow the fuse.
To fix the relay, you will have to replace the oven control module. I think this is about $200 and not too hard to replace if you are somewhat handy. The temperature sensor is also serviceable, you can find parts at Appliance Parts Pros on the web. Hopefully you haven't thrown the range out yet, let me know if you need further assistance.

Hi Charlie. The model number is: MER4530AAW. I'm wondering if it could be the electronic central board that needs replacing? Thanks for your help.
what you need is a new Panel, Control part number 74003596
Thanks for the feedback Charlie. I took the advice of another responder who suggested to pull the heat sensor back out and connect / reconnect it several times to ensure a good connection. I also took steel wool and lightly rubbed the sensorto clean it up. Now it's working fine. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way. If not, your suggestion is next. Again, thanks for your time.
your welcome lets hope that it do not brake again
