Default GE Oven - F3 after replacing oven temp sensor
Model Number: JTP15BW   Brand: GE   Age: More than 10 years   

This is a GE Profile built in electric oven (approx. year 1998). When oven is set to Bake at 350, it comes up to set temperature, maintains it for about 1/2 hour, then F3 error code. Replaced oven temp sensor unit. Still receiving F3 under same conditions. I think next step is to replace the oven control (ERC). Mfg. part # is WB27K5273, now referenced to new part # WB27T10265. Your item # is AP3141629 (oven control).

QUESTIONS: Is the oven control part the next step to try? The configuration of the part is different than the original, so it will probably require some custom wiring. Does the part come with a wiring diagram/instructions? If so, could I get a copy of this before I purchase the part? Thanks.

Gene has much to be proud of

Do not rush with replacement of the control board. The first thing I would do is remove the oven from the cabinet, remove the back cover and check the wire harness from the the oven sensor to the control board. Eliminate the old sensor connection to the wire harness and reconnect it, using a high temperature porcelain wire nuts.

- The part number for the high temperature porcelain wire nuts is AP3440522

Default Fixed - replaced control panel

Gene, thanks for the prompt reply. Since I thought the wiring of the new control panel would be difficult (because the replacement part differed from the original), I had an appliance repairman come out. He tested all connections and they were good. He replaced the control panel and that fixed the problem. I also benefited from a new control panel because one of the numeric digits on the clock had gone bad. The repairman said the control panel wiring was fairly straight forward and I probably could have done it. Well, his overall price for parts/service was very favorable in comparison to any other "authorized service" repair I have had in the past, so we're happy with the final outcome. Once again, thanks for taking the time to answer my post.
