Ge oven fuse

The fuse for a GE Profile electric range model JBP79A0B2AA is usually located behind the control panel, near the power cord. You may need to use a putty knife or thin flathead screwdriver to gently pry the control panel away from the wall before accessing the fuse.

I will give you the meaning of the error codes and possible solutions.

F3 Open Sensor circuit, Open (blown) sensor fuse or bad sensor.
More than likely, you have a oven sensor that needs to be replaced.

F7 Problem with the keypanel, possibly, a function pad button is stuck.
Attempt to clean and unstick button. If this fails, you may have to replace the
keypanel.

I hope this helps you

F3
or
F4 Open or shorted oven temperature sensor (RTD) Check sensor harness and harness connection between oven sensor and oven control. Replace oven temperature sensor (RTD) if wiring is ok. F5 Loss of relay drive circuit If this fault code cannot be cancelled, replace the oven control (also called clock or ERC).

F3 This code usually means that the oven sensor needs to be replaced.

Good luck

Please rate FixYa!

all ge codes f3 are saying ot replace thermal sensor, you can check the harness connecting them for a pinched or burnt wire i guess, as far as getting a part number , you can enter complete modle number her e and look for the sensor, i checked just the partial number you gave and a few different ones showed up

This is due to a Defective control board..You have to get it replaced..

I have the same problem. I noticed that the oven gets to the selected temp ok. Then when the pilot attempts to RELIGHT, it gets the error F3. Did you get a solution? After other posts, I will see if the temp sensor is around 1100 ohm as suggested by others. Ken
