1 Answer Victoria, thank you for asking, Disconnect the sensor from the harness, then measure the sensor value. It should read between 1000 O @ 32°F & 2697 O @ 900°F & at room temperature, it should read approx. = 1080 O. Also, measure from the sensor connector to the sensor casing for a possible short. If the measurement does not correlate to real temperature, or if a short is found, replace the sensor. Then check the wires and the connectors from the sensor back to the control, replacing any that are damaged or shorted. After completing all of this, if the issue continues, replace the control.

Bob May 10, 2024 for Model Number WFG505MOBS2 The oven will not heat to set temp. It shows an f2 code what is the best fix?
1 Answer Bob, this is going to indicate a shorted key failure and the oven control W11126814 would be the cause of failure. Read More...
John White January 20, 2024 for Model Number WFE525S0HV1 Oven and heating eyes quit working and only shows "PRE" on the display. Oven lights work so not electrical breaker. What could be possible cause?
1 Answer John W, Start by using the tech sheet supplied with your machine and place it into the diagnostic mode, checking for error codes. Correct as indicated. Read More...
Wayne January 09, 2024 for Model Number WFE775HOHZ OVEN TEMP WENT UP AND THEN SHUT OFF ERROR CODE F6 AND E1
1 Answer Wayne, This issue will be an overtemperature when heating. You will want to test the oven sensor for resistance between 1000 and 1200 ohms. If the resistance is bad then replace the sensor and if it is good then replace the control board. Read More...

David February 14, 2023 for Model Number WFG510S0AT0 My oven does not stay at temperature once it reaches the set temperature. Once the oven reaches 350 deg., the oven does not stay at temperature. I have to turn off the oven and reset the temperature and then the oven ignites and reaches the set temperature. What needs to be replaced? Is it the sensor assembly? Thank you
1 Answer David, when the unit stops heating (and temperature is more than 30 below the set temperature), the main control WPW10413072 would need to be tested for 120VAC using the wire at the connection CON2 pin 7 (red wire with white stripe). If there is not 120VAC, the failure would be in the main control. Read More...
Walter January 20, 2023 for Model Number SF367LXSS What should the resistance be for Whirlpool M# SF367LXSS oven probe (P/N WPW10181986)? Oven temp isn't consistent.
1 Answer Walter, the oven sensor WPW10181986 should measure between 1080 to 1100 Ohms of resistance at room temperature. Read More...
Matt December 12, 2022 so with my Whirlpool gas oven the problem is burners work correctly, but when try to bake it never warms up. If you select broil, you hear gas valve click open then 3-5 seconds later it clicks closed never igniting. Ive replaced both igniter elements, and the gas valve, only to have the same issue. could it be the temperature probes, or the control board? Thanks in advance for advise.
1 Answer Matt, We will need to have the model number of your unit to be able to assist with your question. Please resubmit your question with the model. Read More...
Gary December 01, 2022 for Model Number Whirlpool RF263LXTS. 3 My oven while baking turns off by itself. This happens more often when I use higher heat like 425 to 500.
1 Answer Hello Gary, You should first check the terminal block where the cord connects to the back of the range. Unplug it and see if the connections are tight and make sure they are not burned. If not, check the prongs of the cord that plug into the outlet. If there is a small black spot, the wall outlet and power cord will need to be replaced. If you find no problems there, the issue would most likely be in the control W10840298. Read More...
Rmeline February 01, 2022 for Model Number WFG320M0BS3 My oven is way too hot. I calibrated to -30 and baking is still done well before the minimum suggested time; 2-3 minutes earlier. on a 10 min. bake. I have been experimenting with how bake cookies properly, without much luck. I'm 87 and don't use the oven often, but I would like it to work as expected. After a year and a half of experiments, I don't know what to do next. I'm guessing I should try a new oven temp. sensor. Any ideas? Thanks for offering. Robert
1 Answer RMELINE, Based on the information provided I would start with checking the resistance of the probe. If it is within specs then the board would be the issue. Read More...
