Also known as a temperature sensor. This part is used to detect the temperature within the oven cavity.
**The following instructions only apply if the connector piece is different than the original.**
Prior to cutting the leads, please check the length of the wire you will need.
1. Cut the leads on your original sensor and the replacement sensor. Be sure to leave enough length to strip and splice the new probe and original connector together.
2. Strip the insulation, or wire cover, back approximately 1/4 inches on the new probe and original connector.
3. Twist the ends of your new probe and original connector together
4. Use a wire nut, or another high heat fastener to cover your exposed wires.
5. Install your new oven probe and re assembly your oven.

Easy repair except that plugs didn't match
This is an easy and fast repair that basically anyone can do. The only problem I had was that upon pulling it out of the box I noticed that the plug was different than what I needed. I could have saved myself some time if I had looked at the paperwork that came with it but instead I instantly called PartSelect to return the part. The woman I spoke with was very courteous and helpful and informed me that the new plug needed to be cut off and the old plug crimped on to the new part. (oh which it stated on the included paperwork that I ignored) I swapped plugs easy peasy and now I have a working oven again!

Be carefull!
Got the part in, reviewed how to put it in. Very easy it seemed. Until I got the unit open. The plug on the part was completely wrong. Should have had female pins in plug, and the plug itself was wrong. Can't see it in the pic. But ya, it's wrong.

The temperature was irratic the entire time the stove was on. I would set it for 350 and it would go up to 425 then down to 275. It was all over the place.
It was great. We ordered the part, it was shipped the next day and I had it the day after that. It was easy to install and the stove has worked perfect since. Color us happy!

the oven stoped working and an F3 displayed on the board also a smell of gass was present
thanks to you 'r assistsnce First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires, and changing the regulator was just as easy.
I removed the back panel, about 6 screws, then found the probe which was attached by 2 screws. Unscrewed them and unplugged it. Plugged the new one in and replaced all the screws. The oven works like a charm now! No more F3 errors!

Oven wouldn't heat up-panel kept showing F-3
Pulled out the stove, removed the screws that held on the back panel, took out the 2 screws that held in the element and disconnected the wires and put the new one in. I put the screw back in and was finished!

error sensor on display when oven was used
I looked up the error code on line and found it was likely a faulty oven temp sensor. I was able to find the part and diagram at partselect.com and placed an order. The probe was in stock and arrived within a couple days. The repair took only about 20 minutes and works fine now. Thanks for your help partselect.com! Jim

I set oven to bake and set temperature. The bake element just continues to glow red hot and oven gets extremely hot. Have to hit cancel to shut oven off. Also temp light on controls is very dim.
For model number FEF367CATA
Hi Roger,
Thank you for your question. If the oven is not heating correctly, then the issue is likely with the oven sensor, sometimes called the oven thermostat, and you will need to check it with a multimeter. When testing the sensor with a multimeter, the sensor should be tested at room temperature. You will need to measure the resistance between the two prongs at the end of the sensor connector. Replace the oven sensor if the reading is less than 900 Ohms or more than 1200 Ohms. Also check the bake element to make sure it is working correctly as well. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

How do i test part #ps10057397 ? Door lock seems to work . Also checked switch on door lock--ohms 0.00 answers when i select ps10057397 refer to gas range ??
For model number FEF369CGSE
Hi Stan, Thank you for the question. Testing the temperature sensor probe on your oven is easy. With the sensor at room temperature, measure the resistance between the two prongs at the end of the sensor connector. The resistance of the sensor should read approximately 1080 – 1090 ohms at room temperature. Hope this helps!

When to oven will not shut off even after pressing the cancel button and the display shows 'Ero-3', will an oven sensor OEM # 5304497424 correct the problem?
For model number FrigidaireFEF389WJCB
Hi Frank, thank you for reaching out. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the broil element, part number PS453940, as it might have shorted out. If the broil element is shorted out, the oven may not turn off. Inspect the broil element for holes or blisters. To determine if the broil element is shorted out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element shows continuity from the terminals to the outer case, this indicates that it is shorted out and you may need to replace it. We hope this solves your problem!
Oven will not self clean. Have checked the door lock, it is ok. The temp probe is ok. The resistance on main heat element 21.5 is this good?
For model number FEF369CGSE
Hi Stan, Thank you for the question. Of the element shows closed for continuity it should be good. Also if it comes on during regular oven use then it will be good. If the lock and probe are both good, I suggest replacing the control board. Hope this helps!

Will not self clean----part of door gasket is not flexible. Could this cause problem ? Also you suggested control board is there any way i test the control board ? Door lock ok probe ok . Thanks , stan
For model number FEF369CGSE
Hi Stan,
Thank you for your question. It might be the cause of the issue if it is not sealing correctly when the door is closed. I think that if it was you would also be having heating issues as well. Usually when your appliance will not go into self clean mode it is either the door lock that is the issue or your control board. Unfortunately only a technician would be able to test your board. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
