Possible Causes

Open or shorted upper oven sensor, Damaged upper oven sensor harness, Loose connector at EOC for upper sensor

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the upper oven sensor or control.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Locate upper sensor: In a double oven, the upper sensor is mounted on the rear wall of the upper cavity. Remove mounting screws and gently pull forward.
  • Test resistance: Disconnect the sensor and measure resistance. At room temperature, expect ~1050–1100 Ω. Replace if open, shorted, or out of range.
  • Check harness: Inspect and test continuity from the sensor connector to the EOC upper sensor terminals. Repair any damaged wiring.
  • Control board: If sensor and wiring are good, replace the EOC.
