How do I get into the fuse to change it on my whirlpool GBD307 PDQ7 oven? Where is it located?

The F3 E2 error means that the oven high temperature sensor is reporting an over-temperature event. This could be a problem with the sensor, the oven control unit or the wiring. The oven needs to be unplugged (or the circuit breaker turned off) and then you can check the sensor. Since this is a built-in oven, you may want to get a professional to look at it. The oven has to be pulled out of the cabinet; if you do it yourself, make sure to get another person to help.

You need to open the rear access panel that covers the control (ERC) and the lower panel over the back of the range. Then find the sensor and trace it's wiring up to the ERC. Disconnect the wires from the ERC. Then with a multimeter, check the resistance of the oven temperature sensor. It should give a reading of 1000-1200 Ohms. Then the ERC may be faulty.

However, some people report that just disconnecting and then reconnecting the wiring will solve the issue. In that case, a bit of debris may have gotten into the wiring harness.

I hope this helps.

Have you checked the heating element supply voltage with a VOM? And have you checked for a popped/burned fuse to the bake element?

that's a bad touch panel or key panel,the number you sent isn't the full model number off of the oven so when you call to order the part you will need that.if you try to fix this yourself make sure the power is off.good luck

F2 - E6 Cancel key drive line open1. Check keypad connector for firm connection (keypad connects to control board).
2. Press CANCEL. If error code returns after 60 seconds, replace keypad (also called touch pad or membrane switch). Some models incorporate keypad in to control board as one unit. In this case, replace control board (also called ERC or clock).

Hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

I called a repair man to come out and fix it.

Usually this is a touchpad and control panel fault but the only way to know for sure is to do some electrical testing with a volt/ohm meter and the wiring diagram located within the appliance.

With the model number of the oven we could look up the code and be more specific about the problem.

We had the same error codes F2 E6. We were told to turn off the breaker to the oven for 5 minutes and then turn it back on and it will reset itself. We tried it and it worked! Whirpool wanted to send someone out on a service call. Thank goodness we didn't!

It is easy to replace.   Turn power off to the oven.    Remove the screws holding the element to the inside of the oven, Carefully pull the element out of the oven liner until you can unplug the wires from the element. Hook up your new element and ease it into place and re-install screws.

You can get the part from any whirpool servicer or you can order it from Sears.
