Error code E3 - F3 on Whirlpool oven, RBS275PDB12

Greetings,

We had a power outage last week and noticed the oven display had partial characters on the display. We turned off the breaker for a while and then turned it back on. The display cleared and we set the time. The only thing is the fan was running and stayed running. We decided to go through the self cleaning cycle. About 45 minutes in the cycle the error code E3 - F3 appeared. We have not tried to bake with the oven yet.

Thanks in advance for your time.

Best regards,

Dean Ueckert

    Yes, it was helpful feedback, the inclusion of the error codes and parts link was very helpful.



    Thanks,

Whirlpool GR396LXGQ oven comes on by itself & goes into clean cycle, code reads E2 -F3-

Whirlpool F3 faults relate to temperature problems in the oven. In the case of the error E2-F3, F3 is the general fault code and E2 is the specific error code. An E0-F3 error indicates that the oven's temperature sensor is open; E1-F3, that the temperature sensor is shorted; E2-F3, that the oven temperature has exceeded the maximum rated 575 degrees Fahrenheit in "Cook" mode; and E3-F3, that the oven temperature has exceeded the maximum rated 950 degrees Fahrenheit in the clean mode. Here is the probe to order.

The part comes with a 365 day, any part, any reason return policy.

Fault code E4 F3

The F3 codes mean that the oven temperature sensor has a problem. In the case of the E4 error, it is an open circuit. (If the GR465XLS0 is a double oven model, it's the lower oven with the problem with the sensor.)

You need to replace the sensor. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that you have provided the correct model number. Most Whirlpool ovens have an extra character in the model number. If your model is the GR465LXLS0, the temperature sensor will cost ~$65. One source is http://www.appliancepartspros.com/Appliance-Parts/whirlpool-oven-sensor-assembly-item-number-ap4326911.aspx .

I hope this helps.

E-3 error code on both ovens

this may be a repeat, previous attempt to respond didn't seem to work....

F2-E3 means stuck key, which probably needs a new keypad ... you can try to unstick by pressing each button a few times, may give temporary solution

F3-E3 means oven overheated in self-clean, could be bad temperature sensor or welded relay on the control board

Error E# and F1

Hello,the error codes E3 and F1 means Wiring harness cavity size does not match previous stored valued
SOLUTION:The "Cavity Size Select"jumpers in the wiring harness indicate a cavity size different from that which the control was previously configured for.
Check the jumpers in the harness to make sure they agree with the actual oven size.
Thanks

WHIRLPOOL SUPER CAPACITY 465 (ELECTRIC) MODEL RF366PXGQ - F3 E0

Same thing happened to me about 1 month ago... Did you get some kind of power outage or lightning strike??? I am pretty sure the stove part works but the oven doesn't right?!?! It might be 2 things.. Either the temperature sensor inside the oven doesn't work or it's the control board (where the clock is). I tried to chaned teh temp sensor but it did not work. I then changed the Control Board and oven works again...
