Mark D Bend , OR July 16, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Electric Range JP989BK1BB Ge Cooktop Jp989bk1bb: A code f153 on my ge glasstop range. How to replace Radiant Element. I called and spoke with a rep about the code and she asked several questions, then said it's likely the heat sensor has failed. She shipped me the replacement part. I received it in short order and took the range apart. I tested the sensor and it passed the test, 1050 ohms resistance. I called again and another woman asked if I was testing it at room temp. I said yes, and she asked me to install the replacement anyway as the RFD may pass the test at room temp and fail at high temp. I replaced the unit and "voila," it worked fine. Thanks for the part, fast delivery, and help with understanding how the range parts work. You're the best!
