Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the control.
- Factory reset: Use the user manual procedure to restore factory settings (often by holding specific keys). If unavailable, power cycle for 5–10 minutes.
- Check model configuration: Some replacement controls require entering a model code. Verify the correct code is programmed per the service manual.
- Verify sensor: Measure oven temperature sensor resistance at room temperature (around 1080–1100 Ω at 70°F). If out of range, replace the sensor.
If configuration and sensor are correct but F1E3 remains, replace the control board.
