Possible Causes
Open or shorted oven NTC sensor, Broken sensor wiring harness, Loose connector on control board, Sensor out of specification
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect the range from mains before removing the back panel or accessing the oven cavity.
Steps:
- Locate the sensor: Inside the oven cavity, find the small metal probe (usually at the rear upper area). Remove its mounting screws and gently pull it forward to access the connector.
- Check connections: Ensure the sensor plug is firmly connected and wires are not burnt or broken.
- Measure resistance: With a multimeter, measure the sensor at room temperature. Typical values are around 1 kΩ–1.1 kΩ (for some NTC types) or 1000–1100 Ω (for PT1000) depending on Brandt model. Compare with service specs.
- Replace sensor: If the reading is open, shorted, or far from spec, replace the oven temperature sensor with the correct Brandt part.
- Check control board: If the sensor tests good but F01 remains, the electronic oven control (EOC) may be faulty and require replacement.
