F3 E2 means there is an over temp condition caused by the oven sensor. It would also be a good idea to check the sensor wiring and connections.

The sensor probe (see pic below) is fastened in from either the inside of the oven with 2 screws holding it to the liner. Or they stick it through from the back. I think yours is the latter method. You would need to cut the power and remove the back in order to gain access to it. Before you actually buy any parts check the sensor wires and any of their connections.
