Questions & Answers

For Whirlpool Oven Temperature Sensor (Part Number: OEM18072327)

1 Answer

Doug, it is recommended that the bake element WP77001094 and broil element WPY0063532 are tested (from the back of the range) to ensure they are functional. With the range power cord unplugged from the outlet, the bake element would be tested for 23O of resistance and the broil element would be tested for 19O. If either of them do not test properly, the part would need to be replaced. If they test properly, the oven sensor would be next and should measure around 1100O at room temperature. If the temperature sensor tests good, then the likely cause would be the main control. For the most accurate part numbers for the sensor and the main control, the model tag would need to be identified as having either P1143851NWW or P1143812NWW on it as this can impact which part numbers are used.

Thank you for your question, Make sure the oven is actually coming on and lighting, it sounds like the igniter is coming on but not opening the gas valve, when that happens the igniter only comes on and heats. If that is the case, you would need to replace the oven igniter, part number WP31940001.

Hello Larry. It sounds like the control 0307783 is bad on the unit. The control has been permanently discontinued by the manufacturer and we don't know of any source or replacement for the part.

Jeff,

The most likely cause for the oven not working would either be faulty elements or a faulty control board. You can visually check the element to make sure that they are good. Test the control board by checking voltage. Also check the power supply to make sure that there is 240vac getting to the unit.

Hello Russ,

F4 Error code indicates a shorted oven sensor circuit. You will want to test the wiring to your oven sensor circuit. Also test sensor. Sensor should ohm out at approximately 1100 ohms at room temperature.
