Error code F3-1
Appliance Range

F3-1 is listed for ranges only. The manual suggests three possible trouble spots: the oven temperature sensor, the control and the wiring.

Reset steps

  1. Cut power at the breaker and leave it off for a minute.
  2. Turn it on again.
  3. Stay with the oven for one minute to see that F3-1 does not come back.
  4. Verify oven operation to finish.

Other codes to compare

  • F3 points at the control side only.
  • F3E0 is a sensor-side message in the same series.
  • F3E1 also names the oven sensor.
