Error code F30 Oven temperature sensor
Appliance Range
Quick answer

F30 on a Kenmore range points to the oven temperature sensor circuit on 790 electric, glass touch, Elite slide-in gas or dual-fuel and 2014 models.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F30 Oven temperature sensor may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Oven temperature sensor circuit open or sensor failure, depending on the series.

F30 by series

Kenmore range F30 means
790-prefix self-cleaning electric, 2004 and newer Sensor circuit open
Freestanding electric with glass touch panel control Sensor failure
Elite slide-in gas or dual-fuel: 790.4276, 790.4275, 790.4261, 790.4260, 790.3264, 790.3263 Sensor failure
Self-cleaning electric, 2014 models Sensor probe circuit open

What the manuals describe

  • 790 electric range: probe resistance is read at room temperature against a chart, and the harness from the electronic oven control board to the probe connector gets inspected.
  • Glass touch and Elite slide-in ranges: with the range unplugged, resistance is measured across the sensor circuit starting at the electronic oven control board.

All of that is technician work, so the owner’s part is to unplug the range and call.

Other sensor codes

  • F31: shorted sensor circuit
  • F3E0: oven temperature sensor failure
  • F3/E0: open sensor circuit
