Oven temperature is inaccurate, food undercooked or overcooked without any error code

Safety first: Use caution when working around a hot oven.

• Verify with thermometer:
  • Place an oven thermometer in the center of the oven.
  • Set oven to 350°F and allow at least 20–30 minutes to stabilize.
  • Compare actual temperature to set temperature.
• Adjust calibration:
  • Most Kenmore ranges allow offset adjustment via the control panel (e.g., hold Bake for several seconds, then adjust +/- up to 35°F).
  • Follow your user manual to set the offset to correct the difference.
• Check sensor:
  • If temperature is off by more than calibration can correct, test the oven temperature sensor resistance at room temperature.
  • Replace if out of spec.
• Control board:
  • If sensor is good and calibration fails to correct, the electronic oven control (EOC) may be inaccurate and require replacement.
