AOES3030E Amana Wall Oven - Instructions

Removed the old sensor which is held into the upper right of the back of the oven by removing the two screws and pulling the sensor out. Then disconnected the sensor from its connector. Replace the old with the new by simply clicking it into the connector. Then pushed the wire back into the oven wall and screwed the two screws back in. The whole job took about one minute to do after evaluating the process. While it was not necessary to remove the door, I did (which was very easy) and ended up cleaning the glass inside and out. All in all, a complete success. Oven working as new.

Take top cover off take gear box cover off. check all gears for wear and clean all of above. Be sure you identify all parts needed before you order plus assembly grease!

exactly as described, your service was excellent, thank you

Unscrewed the oven from the opening. Removed the metal housing on the oven. Found the control panel. Hard to remove with the type of plastic anchors holding the panel on. Wasn't bad after that. Just had to keep track of the wires as you disconnected them. Reconnect to new board as you disconnect was the simplest. Worked just fine after that. nice new oven again.

Pulled out old element, put in new element. No problem. Works like new!

F3 = Sensor failure. After reading other stories here it seemed like a quick DIY fix. It was fairly easy, except tham my Amana Model had very short leads to the sensor that made me have to pull the oven out to get at the back. It was still easy, however it did not fix the problem. Ultimately I hired a repair person and they found that the underlying problem was a door hinge that had prevented the top of the door from sealing well and letting heat escape up near the control board. Over the years this had damaged the board, which is old and no longer made and the whole unit was totalled. Bummer for me but it was good that I tried and I will use PartSelect again (hopefully not soon, though).

Turned off electricity to oven. Removed 8 screws with a phillips screw driver, pulled element with pan down and pulled wires out of back of oven. Pulled connection of 2 wires out of old element, these just pushed together, no wiring required. Used pliers to bend back brackets holding old element in the pan and removed old element. Placed new element into pan and bent brackets back in place to hold element. Connected 2 wires by pushing the connectors together. Pushed wires back into back of oven and placed element pan up against the top of the oven and put 6 screws back in place. Turned electricity back on. The hardest part was the awkward position of working laying upside down and reaching up to do the screws.

Removed back panel, unplugged sensor, removed sensor from inside oven (2 screws), replaced with new part.

Received the part the day after ordering. Appreciated the quick service and repair took less than a minute.

bought used, oven light was damaged from previous repair attempt, without installation instructions removing the fixture was tricky, had to bend the housing tabs inward w/screwdriver to release fixture (more damage). once out the new fixture went in place quite easily, wires simply hook up, re install back panel, re-connect power, Have a nice Day!

The key to this repair was making sure I typed in the correct model number and serial number so that I got the correct part. I had read here that a couple of folks had received the wrong temperature sensor (i.e. it had the male plug instead of the female plug). Unfortunately I had to call the local appliance repair guy as the plug could not be accessed from the interior of the oven. It was easy to remove the 2 screws that held it in place but I could not pull enough of the wire out to access the plug. The local repair guy pulled to oven out and removed the back in order to unpluy the bad sensor and plug in the new one. It was actually kind of nice that he came as he used a digital thermometer to cycle the oven through a couple of warm ups to see if it was actually working correctly. It worked fine and my wife was happy again. The $75 I spent on the repairman was darn well worth it. "Happy wife = happy life!"
