Oven temperature sensor

"I have an Electrolux EOEE63AS oven (Australia). The temp is off by 20-30 degree's either way. I have messured the room temp resistance on the Temp sensor (550 ohms). I have seen some information showing this is fine and some stating 1000 - 1100 ohms.

The Electrolux ovens usually used PTC thermistor PT500.
Resistance of PTC sensor depending on ambient temperature and should be around 550 ohms on ambient temperatures between 20-30 Celsius. I would like to check insulation rasistance between metalic housing and each connection terminal. The rasistance should be higher than 2 MOhms.

SOURCE: GE Oven JKP26GP2 getting F2 error, even when not

F2 usually means the temp sensor is not working. here is a link to "F" codes.

It has many manufacturers listed,so scroll to the GE ones.
The reason it beeps when not in use is b/c the EOC is reading the error in the part.

Good Luck!

Hi,


Thank you for contacting Fixya.com.


In electronic ovens the digital display use a sensor to monitor oven temperature. To solve temperature problems for these models, you may need to replace the sensor. Also you can calibrate the temperature using the key pad. Check the owner's manual regarding this. Ovens without a digital display often use a mechanical system for controlling temperature. On many of these units, you can remove the thermostat knob and adjust the knob itself to more accurately represent the actual setting of the thermostat.

When you remove the knob, there's a screw on the back of it with a small calibration plate, you can loosen the screw, adjust the plate, then tighten the screw again. If the knob isn't adjustable, and the oven temperature is off by more than 30 to 40 degrees, you need to replace the thermostat.


Please get back to us if you have any further query.

SOURCE: What should an oven temp sensor's ohm reading

The oven sensor should be between 1000-1200 ohm's at room temperature or roughly 1080 ohm's. I would place the Tech Sheet here but Whirlpool will not allow me to post their manuals or Tech Sheets. You are welcome to the Tech Sheet HERE I hope this helps Thanks, Sea Breeze

Our ELECTROLUX EOEE63AS oven door will not shut properly have got nowhere with ELECTROLUX SERVICE HERE IN South Australia, any clues!! Mal

Don't waste time with a new door like I did. The door hinge is poor design in my opinion. Buy 2 super magnets on eBay, there's a seller a Flinders Park in S.A. The magnets should be 24mm x 9mm x 3mm thick. Place them top left and right of the open door outside the seal on the stainless panel. See pic.
Problem solved.

We have an electrolux E30EW85GPSS double oven. The lower oven appears to work properly. However, the upper oven will bring itself up to the set temperature but after reaching it, does not stay on and...

Hi
This means a loose/broken wire on the oven temp sensor or the sensor is bad and should be replaced. To solve this issue start by checking the oven temp. sensor for 1100 ohms, if the rating is more then that then check the control board however, as the issue is only with upper oven it is most likely that the temperature sensor is bad and should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

Preheat takes forever

http://www.applianceaid.com/nuker.html
click the link  Oven temp sensors sense the temperature is the oven cavity and the temp sensor changes resistance, this change in ohm resistance tells the oven control what temperature the oven cavity at and tells the control to shut off the element or turn it back on. The most common temp sensors used today ( *not all ) are approx 1000-1100 ohm resistance at room temperature ( 70�F )
Some ohm readings and there temperature:
Degrees F    -   Resistance
            100 - 1143 ohms
             200 - 1350 ohms
             300 - 1553 ohms
             350 - 1654 ohms
             400 - 1753 ohms
            500 - 1949 ohms

F3 code and beeping

F3 - F4 Open oven temperature sensor (circuit) (over 2700 ohms) or, shorted oven temperature sensor. Could be a result of:
· contamination on terminals
· pinched wire in oven temperature sensor circuit
· cold solder joint on control. · Disconnect power to range and remove oven temperature sensor connector from control.
· Measure oven temperature sensor resistance at oven temperature sensor connector (take care not to damage terminals in block) - Should read 1100 ohms at room temperature (approx 72 degrees F).
· Measure each oven temperature sensor lead from connector block to ground. If shorted, look for pinched or cut wire in oven temperature sensor circuit.
· Check connector terminals - Look for deformed or corrosion on terminals. Repair or replace.
If all above is ok replace control.
