How is my RBS305PD whirlpool oven fixed into the cabinet. I need to remove to check the TOD.

"heating and broil elements check ok?"...by using ohmmeter I assume? next step: unplug oven or remove power source; remove back cover of oven and ohm the thermocouple (unplugged) while heating/cooling it. Resistance readings should change quite a bit. If this checks out, your control board inside the panel is fried.A new one will cost $200-$300. If oven is more than 10 years old, I doubt if you'll find one.

The f-3 is a bad sensor. The sensor is a probe that mounts in the rear upper portion of your oven. At room temp the sensor should read around 1100 ohms. It must not be grounded to frame on either wire. To replace the sensor remove the screw holding it to the oven and carefully pull the wire through till you get ti the quick connection. Take care not to loose the connection or you might have to remove the oven from it's cabinet which might prove costly or aggrevating to say the least.

hello,

Instruction below.

Unplug your oven. Insert the size 15 Security Torx bit into your multi-bit screwdriver and remove the screws from the back panel. Take off the back panel.

2 Locate the fuse. It should be near where the electrical cord comes into the oven. The fuse is a small white bar with metal caps on either end. Carefully remove the fuse. Avoid touching the transformer or other parts inside the oven.

3 Purchase a new fuse. Most whirlpool ovens use an 18 amp ceramic fuse. Consult your owner's manual to find out what kind of fuse is used, or take the old fuse into the store to find the exact match.

4 Replace the fuse. Put the cover back on and see if your oven works. If it does, replace the screws. If it does not, try a different fuse. If the oven still does not turn on, you may have to have it replaced of professionally repaired.

thanks,

An F3 error code is for the oven sensor located inside the oven at the back left, Replace that sensor

I removed the oven door without putting in the door removal pins that I was supposed to use. Now I can't put the door back on.

Do not know what else to tell you. Sorry

Ouch...sounds like the control module is blown. Thats the electronic timer. I've known this happen on several occasions. Bad luck!

It's mounted on the rear of the oven. First, turn off the circuit breaker, then the oven must be removed and the back panel taken off to access the TOD (thermal overload device). Its mounted right flat against the oven rear panel, with one large red wire attached on each end. If the TOD is open, that means the rear of the oven got too hot or the TOD failed (its a safety device). You can connect the two wires together and insulate with electrical tape, restore power and test the heaters to make sure the TOD is actually the problem. They haven't ever solved this problem...the most current answer is to replace the TOD with a new one, but bend the mounting tabs so that when the new part is installed, there is a space between the TOD and the oven sheet metal about the thickness of a dime. Then reassemble and reinstall the oven.

replace the Fuse-Thermal Number 37 on the parts list for tthe oven. new part number is 9759243. Easy to replace

have you checked your in coming power the clock will work on 110 but it takes 220 for full function zzsbolt yours does sounds like a thermal fuse
