Appliance Range
Quick answer

F3/E0 on a Kenmore 665 model range is a defective oven temperature sensor or an open oven temperature sensor circuit.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F3/E0 Oven temperature sensor open may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Defective oven temperature sensor or open oven temperature sensor circuit.
