Ge WB27X28659 Cooling Fan Sensor OEM Part

You will need a Philips screwdriver, nut driver, and star drivers for this repair. Cordless drill recommended. TURN OFF THE CIRCUIT BREAKER BEFORE STARTING!!! You'll need to disassemble the cord cap before pulling the unit. Take a picture to remember which wires are connected to which terminals. Placed a blanket on the floor for protection and mobility. Removed cooking racks and both doors, then pulled the oven, which is the hardest part to do alone. It's a heavy unit. Once on the blanket I was able to easily rotate the unit and remove the back panels. Take pictures after removing each part. It will save you some head scratching when you put it back together. Removing the old fan and installing the new fan / circuit board was a breeze. Replacing the panels and doors was a snap. Move the oven into place, tilt forward, and slide it up to the opening easily with the blanket. Push the wires/flex up into the hole (much easier with a second person). Once the rear is on the lip just push the top and the unit slides right into the opening. Thanks AppliancePartsPros for the next day delivery!

We have been getting the F97 error code for the last year. I could get the oven to work for a period of time by using my shop vac to clean and spin the lower fan, but eventually even that wouldn't work. My guess was that the lower fan or the board sensor was bad, so my plan was to replace both. Pulling the oven was fairly straight forward. Four screws at the front, and it slides right out. I removed both doors and all the racks to reduce weight. But be aware that the oven will not function with the doors removed, so you will need to replace them to test your work. I used a workout/weight bench to set the oven on (just happened to be the perfect height). Several overlapping sheet metal panels needed removed, but access to the lower fan was fairly easy. One big red connecting clip to disconnect and the whole fan and wire harness comes right out. I needed to borrow two nuts from the old fan to attach the new board sensor to the new fan. I would recommend taking a few pics as you go to remind you of the correct reassembly sequence. Overall the hardest part was getting the oven back in the cabinet. Ours was a replacement oven, and barely fit in the cabinet to begin with. Kept hitting the power cable and would not seat all the way back. After about 10 attempts, I was able to get it "good enough". My wife was able to bake cookies for the first time in 3 weeks.

Replaced cooling fan and sensor. Really didn’t need sensor, but though it was a good idea while it was apart. Your supposed to take top and side panels off, but I was able to ‘finesse’ it out. Helpful Tip- GE Cafe Double Oven. Press ‘bake’ and ‘2’ together for a few seconds puts oven in Diagnostic mode. From there you can access trouble codes. I found code 350 for cooling fan. Codes will not always appear by themselves on the display, you may need to find them in Diag mode, it depends on the fault. Press ‘bake’ and ‘1’ together and you go in Service Mode. From there you can operate functions, such as the cooling fan, convection fan, etc etc.

I googled a GE stove 1 to 5 years old and up came the part # and the same flashing F350. Fortunately, my son was home for Christmas and he replaced the parts ordered. The stove is working perfectly.

Replaced the cooling fan and sensor.
