E2- F3 Error code, what does that mean??
The F3 E2 error code indicates that the electronic oven control board in the range senses an over-temperature condition in the oven.
This can be caused by a failed temperature sensor probe, a wiring problem between the sensor and the control board, or a failed electronic oven control board.
If the oven is apparently not overheating when this error code appears, then your likely failure is the temperature sensor probe.
If the oven is overheating, then you likely have a failed electronic oven control board due to a stuck relay not cycling the oven heating element off properly.
For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.

Oven door came off
Just found this posted by tech17 (THANK YOU SO MUCH!) and it worked!
POSTED BY TECH17:
i posted the solution under premium problems i don't know how that works but what you have to do is get a couple of nails pull the hinge on the door down far enough to insert the nails in the holes and let it rest against the door this will hold the door at the proper angle to engage the hooks inside the hinge slots on the body of the range grasp the door on each side and insert the hinges in each side to engage the hooks then open the door all the way and remove the nails

Hello- The F3 error code indicates an open circuit in the temperature sensor. Pull back cover to access sensor wires. At room temp the resistance should be 1000-1100ohms. If open, replace sensor. This should solve the problem. Let me know if this info helps- have more if needed. Thanks- Ed

Have you tried Shutting the Power for few minutes, say 10 minutes and then turning it Back. If not, try it.

Your touchpad is defective.Unplug the oven/turn off breaker. Remove the front control panel. Unplug the touchpad ribbon connector and re-plug it in and try the oven. If it still does not work the touchpad will have to be replaced.

Not finding what you are looking for?
oven is not heating then you probably have a bad heating element in your oven. This is not that hard to fix yourself...
