Lynn July 26, 2018 for Model Number JRP14GOV1BB I have a GE electric wall oven model # JRP14GOV1BB. I am getting an F2 error code when I try to cook and the oven shuts off. According to GE error codes , this indicates a temperature sensor problem. I have ordered and received part # WB20K5041 from your website which is suppose to fit. There is no snap in plug, only 2 loose wires. I do not see a repair video for this type of connection and after reading another person's question about this same part, am wondering if I also will have to pull my wall oven all the way out and replace this part from the back. If that is the case, I will have to hire someone to make this repair.
1 Answer Lynn, you can still make the repair without pulling the oven out, sometimes when pulling the old sensor out through the oven cavity, there will be enough slack to get to the connection, if not, you can hard wire the new sensor in, just use ceramic wire nuts and electrical tape to make a good connection.

Tony January 18, 2012 for Model Number #jgrp17weviww ser#gr681415q How do I install a sensor & harness on GE gas wall oven listed?
1 Answer Hi Tony. The only way to replace the oven sensor is to get a capable helper. Remove the door as it makes it lighter to handle. Then set up a couple of sturdy chairs to pull the unit out (remove power and trim first). Then you will remove the back and access the elect. connection to the sensor. Part # WB20K5041. The ceramic wire nuts needed are part # TJMA01164-1. Then remove the racks and mount screws inside the oven. Pass the new one through the oven and bolt in place. Now go to the back and cover the open hole with insulation tight around the sensor back area. This will insure that no heat escapes out and burns wires in the future. This makes the difference of a repairman -to a - technician. Some people will not concentrate on this step and have premature failures. The manufactures have all upgraded the sensor wires outer coating for temperature issues along with the crimp on the back of the sensor. Reverse reassembly. Thank You. Read More...
