Our GE drop-in electric range is flashing an F2 error code. I can reset the unit for a few minutes by pressing the clear button, but the code reappears a few minutes later. I flipped the breaker hoping this would reset the unit. No luck.

The unit was in the house when we moved in, so no manual to refer to. I found a few articles on line that refer to a heat sensor.

Any thoughts?

F2 Oven over temp - exceeded 590F with door in unlocked position or 990F with door locked.
1.  If actual temp condition occurred, look for welded relay contacts or high resistance connection.
2.  Look for any cause in the oven temperature sensor circuit.

_____________________________________________________________


 
F2 During Bake Control senses oven temp above 590 degrees F High resistance connection in oven temperature sensor circuit.
1.  Check Electronic Range Control (ERC).
2.  Welded bake relay contacts_______________

___________________________________________________________

F2   Note: Also see fan thermal switches Indicates that oven is over temperature in one of the following modes within either a cooking or clean mode of operation.
1.  Control senses oven temperature above 650 degrees F with the door circuit in the unlock mode.
2.  Control senses oven temperature above 935 degrees F with the door in the locked mode.
3.  Stalled cooling fan or airflow problem. ยท Look for welded relay contacts. (Heating elements on in off mode).
4.  Look for open thermal switch in lock motor circuit. Switch is normally closed and will open if area overheats due to fan not operating. Look for cause - fan thermal switch not closing, fan stalled, etc.
5.  Look for high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit due to high contact resistance (poor terminal crimp, deformed terminals, loose connection) or intermittent solder joint on control or intermittent oven temperature sensor.
6.  Look for electrical noise interference in the oven temperature sensor circuit (Ham radio, cordless phone, etc.).

F2 Oven temp exceeds 590 w/ unlocked door High resistance or interference in oven temperature sensor
1.  Replace oven temperature sensor.

This is what I could find for GE range fault codes....quite a selection..see if you can find the tech sheet in your unit for the fault codes for your range..

Dan, no one deleted your post, I guarantee it. All the techs at this pillar of appliance repair wisdom concur that GE sucks warthog sphincter.

I don't know what happened to your post, maybe you're confusing it with another thread. But the only posts I have ever deleted were ones that were purely vulgar personal attacks and had no appliance-redeeming value.
