Next I checked the sensor. I did manage to get about 1080 ohms but also noticed that when I removed it and gently shake it rattles, is that normal ? Both bake and broil elements gave readings so I'm assuming they are ok and conducting. Still can't find what the one code means and now wondering if there is a way to test the control unit itself ?
