Oven would not heat or sometimes hold heat to set temp
I was able to find the most common reason for my oven's symptom by searching online. I searched for the part I needed but was not confident that I would get the correct part until I looked on partselect.com. After verifying the part number with my owners manual and looking at the video on their website, I decided to order. PartSelect shipped the part as expected, and I was able to install it in less than 30 minutes. The only tool needed for installation was a nut driver. My oven is now working like new.
Many thanks to PartSelect for their comprehensive website and fine service.
Pulled out the cracked pieces with tweezers. The only really important thing is that the bottom tab of the replacement lens is the 'hooked' shape, whereas the straight tab goes ton top. Place the bottom tab in first, push to get the side tabs in, then the top tab snaps into place. Easy peasy.
Unplugged range; removed back cover; removed old oven probe. Installed new probe; replaced cover; connected power and turned on range - that simple. My only issue was probe was shipped in bubble rap and unit was slightly damaged (bent). Once straightened, the probe could be installed. Probe should have been shipped in sturdy cardboard cylinder or box. I called customer service, they were very nice, and noted my feedback on my account in case the unit fails prematurely.
Oven would not reach temperature or it would finally reach temp but would not stay warm.
Pulled oven away from cabinet area Unplugged oven from wall outlet Removed screws to free top panel from back of oven Removed screws to free lower panel from back of oven Probe backing was now exposed Unplugged probe from connector Removed one screw from probe housing Twisted probe housing counterclockwise then pulled probe out Reversed the process to install probe Plugged probe into connector Reversed the panel removal process Plugged oven back in to wall outlet Turned on oven and tested with no further issue
Called fridgidaire and they told me the a F31 code means my temperature sensor is not working. So I ordered one online. I installed it and I still have F31 code and still won't work. So what now? Do I trust them to tell me another part?
1. Order part 2. Remove 2 top screws holding vent cover and carefully remove cover 3. Open door all the way and lift, door will come of the microwave 4. Set door on a flat surface facing down 5. You will need a flat screwdriver,carefully set the screwdriver between the door and the black plastic and pry out completely 6. Remove screws holding handle. (This will be a good time to clean the inside of this door) 7. Attach new handle tighten screws 8. Put black plastic back in door and press on all around make sure that is set in place 9. Re-install door and vent.
Inner window on my Frigidaire electric stove oven cracked
On this website, I found an instruction manual for this stove. There were 2 pages about how to change the glass on the oven door, including diagrams. I'd also checked a generic youtube video on changing inner glass on oven doors too, although the hinges in the youtube demo weren't exactly like those in mine. I printed out the instructions, checked the oven door to make sure the hinges looked like those in the diagrams, set aside a couple of hours on a free day with no other distractions, and did the job. I just kept removing screws from the inside oven door, peeling back the layers of the onion, until I got to the innermost glass, which was cracked. Put the new glass in, put it back together. On youtube the guy said it would take 20 minutes. It took me about an hour. Saved a ton of money by doing it myself.
First remove all pieces of the broken lens. You may have to use tweezers to do this. after all broken pieces are removed place the replacement lens inthe opening and carefully snap the bottom side in place then snap the top side in place useing ypour thumb to apply pressure to the lens.
Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.
