Electrolux Wall Oven Code F30: Open Temperature Probe

Medium · inspection needed

Code: F30
Appliance: Wall Oven
Brand: Electrolux
Warranty: 30-day workmanship

What F30 means

F30 on an Electrolux wall oven, such as the EW30EW55GS, EW30EW65GS or EI30EW45JS, means the control sees an open circuit on the oven temperature probe, an RTD sensor, or in its wiring. Without a good temperature reading the control cannot hold the oven at a set temperature, so it stops the cooking. You see F30 on the display and the oven will not bake or broil properly. It is an older style oven we repair, and we say plainly if a repair is not worth it.

Common causes of F30

Oven temperature probe (RTD sensor)
Probe wiring and connector
Oven control board

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Let the oven cool and press any key to see whether F30 clears. 2. Switch the oven off at its breaker for half a minute, then switch it back on. 3. Try a short bake at a low setting. 4. If F30 returns, stop using the oven and call us.

! Why to stop there

F30 says the probe circuit is open. It does not tell us whether the probe, its wiring or the control is the cause, so we test the probe and its connector.
A probe that reads far out of range is a common finding, and we confirm it before replacing parts.
The quote is in writing before we begin, and our repair is backed by 30 days of workmanship coverage.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

F30F30 questions

What is an open probe?

The oven temperature probe is a sensor with a known resistance. An open circuit means the control cannot read it at all, and it shows F30.

Why does a reset sometimes help?

A reset can clear a passing glitch in the reading. If F30 returns, the probe circuit still needs testing. We test the probe and its connector so you are not left guessing, and we explain what we find in plain words.

Is F30 connected to F31?

Yes, they are the two sides of the same sensor check. F30 is an open probe and F31 is a shorted probe, and we test the same circuit for either.
