I reviewed other post and found it should have been a bad probe. I ordered the probe from you, installed it and now I am getting an F1 or F3 code when heating up the oven. What would be causing this?

Many of the replacement probes even come with ceramic wire nuts so you can remove the plug and wire nut the new probe in, just been my experience with them.
