Customer Questions and Answers for Oven Sensor Assembly by Ge

Mat, It could be an oven temp.sensor issue, but based on the partial model number you supplied, this should be a gas range, and you may want to start by checking for a weak oven burner igniter WB2X9154(example only) That would be a more likely issue in a slow to heat gas oven. Thanks

Hello Mary, There is a slight chance of the control being at fault, but the likelyhood of the sensor being bad is much higher as per the factory description of the fault code. It basically says that the bake compartment temperature as measured by the oven sensor is over 650° with the door unlatched or over 915° latched. This is possible in the control, but the sensor resistance dictates the reading the control will pop up. Statistically, the sensor WB21X5301 going out of tolerance is the cause. If by chance, the control should happen to be the cause, we will refund the part cost (minus shipping), as long as it is returned to us within 365 days from the date of order.

Hello Ross. You can cut the connector off the sensor WB21X5301 and use ceramic wire nuts DE81-08428A to put the wires together.

Hello Tony. Based on the information you provided, the timer WB12K19 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. This part has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part.

Hello Fred. Is the igniters glowing when bake is selected? Is there power coming to the igniters? If not, you will need to replace the control WB27K10007. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Hello Wayne. Test the sensor WB21X5301. It should read 1100 ohms at room temperature and 1650 ohms at 350°. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Hello Wayne. WB21X5301 is the correct part number. You will disconnect the power and remove the screw securing the sensor in the unit. Then pull out the sensor and the connector. Unplug the old sensor and install the new sensor. These are not hard to replace.

Hello Laz. The F2 code is: OVEN OVERTEMPERATURE CONDITION 1) Door unlocked oven exceeded 620° F. 2) Door locked - oven exceeded 930° F. 3) Door Latch unlocked while oven in excess of 620°F. To correct this: 1) If no overtemperature condition occurred: check all contacts and connections in sensor circuit.Eliminate excessive resistance in sensor circuit due to increased contact/connector resistance. 2)If no overtemperature condition occurred: look for welded relay contacts on bake, broil, or double-line-break relays. If realy contact welding is confirmed -REPLACE CONTROL 3) Ensure Door Latch stays locked for duration of Clean Cycle. Hope this helps.

Hello Golfer. Based on the information you provided, the clock WB27K5190 is bad and will need to be replaced. This part has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part. Thanks.

Hello Ferdinand. It sounds like the control is set to Celsius mode and will need to be changed to Fahrenheit mode. To do this, you will need to press bake and broil at the same time until SF appears on the control board. Then press broil and cook time at the same time. A "C" will appear on the display. Press the two buttons again and it will change to an "F". On some controls, once you have entered the sf mode, the broil button will change from "C" to "F" on the control board. Once "F" is selected, you will press start to program the board. Hope this helps.
