Product Description

This genuine OEM part is a replacement sensor for your oven. The sensor works with the control board to measure and regulate the temperature in your oven. If the sensor has become defective, the temperature in the oven can fluctuate and read inaccurately. Other symptoms you may experience are little to no heat, or the oven getting too hot. The displayed temperature and the actual temperature can be off by over 50 degrees if the sensor is not working properly. You can use a multimeter to test if the oven sensor is faulty, and if so, it should be replaced. Please be sure to disconnect the power supply to your range before beginning this repair.

Intermittently warm (not hot) oven recepies
I watched the install video, gathered up basic tools (#2 + screwdriver, flashlight, and cleaning rags. Turned off circuit breaker, placed some heavy cardboard under front base feet (no floor scratches) and slowly slid range out enough to gain access to rear panel cover. Removed all necessary screws and slid panel away to gain access to thermistor. Detached wiring connector, removed the two screws slid old thermistor out, new one in, tighten thermistor mounting screws and attached wiring connector. Slide oven back in place, turn on circuit breaker, set clock, and bake test batch of muffins. Worked like new. Celebrated with muffins and coffee - easy peasy!
