I have a Kitchen Aid wall oven, electric heat. Model # KEBS107DAL4 – gives fault code:
F3 – E2 ( Oven too hot Replace oven temperature sensor)
This fault code only when self-cleaning. Bake and Broil works fine.
Wouldn’t the sensor fail for baking as well? Thanks in advance for any help.
If the sensor fails in S/C, then it is losing it’s resistance at the higher 950ºF temps. No doubt from all the self-cleaning the customer has done previously. This leads to a failure such as the hi-limit on back of the oven, to control issues such as the sensor. Try a new sensor and advise them against electronic cleaning. Oven sensors have a history of going bad at higher temperatures. One could always put the unit is self clean, monitor the rise in temperature and check the thermistor as the temperature gets close to clean temp. This does take time I know, but it is better than a call-back.
