Temperature Sensor Specifications
This temperature sensor, also known as a thermistor, is compatible with various makes and types of appliances. This thermistor uses electrical currents to detect the interior temperature of the appliance it is in and by working with the control board, the board adjusts the level of cooling or heating through its heating or cooling element, depending on what is needed. If your appliance is being improperly heated or cooled, the temperature sensor may be to blame, and can be tested with a multimeter to check for continuity to see whether it is defective. Check your user manual for exact placement of this thermistor and any diagnostic information.

The part is fine I think. It didn't fix the problem. The oven still will not maintain temperature.

Part did not work , oven still not heating correctly
I emailed Parts Select and described what the issue was . They told me most likely it was the temperature sensor. I tested the ohms rating and the old one showed it was bad . I installed the one purchased from Parts Select and it didn't correct the problem. I emailed Parts Selet to ask what could be the problem . They said call the manufacture. They should have told me that when I asked the first time instead of just wanting to sell me the wrong or defective part . Read the fine print their 30 day no questions asked warranty does not include electrical parts . Thank You Parts Select

Paula - For model number LG LRE30453SB/01
November 7, 2022
Would it cause the oven to read 100 degrees when you first turn it on and not to maintain the temp I set it on if it needs to be replaced?
Hello Paula, thank you for the question. According to our research, the Temperature Sensor appears to be faulty, it measures and regulates the internal temperature of your oven cavity. We would recommend replacing it, the part number is PS11732697. If that does not help then the issue is likely to be with the Thermostat, part number PS3530468. If you require assistance placing an order, please contact customer service. We hope that helps!
after cleaning oven oven is clean but will no longer bake as code f9 keeps coming up -what is that telling me
Hello Harold, thank you for reaching out. This error code indicates that the oven has failed to exceed 150 degrees Fahrenheit after five minutes of preheating. We would recommend you replace the relay control board, part number PS8751324, to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
Hello Pat, thank you for your inquiry. According to our research, the issue is most probably with the oven control board, part number PS16223045. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. Glad to be of assistance!
My oven will start, ignite, and reach set point, say 350. The temp will start to drop so the oven again ignites but it will not maintain 350. The oven continues to heat but it will not maintain 350. the temp in the oven will continue to drop. You can shut the oven off, let it set and it will do the same as described above.
Hi Michael, thank you for contacting us. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend replacing the display control board, part number PS16223754, to fix the issue. It monitors the temperature and controls the oven heat. We hope this solves your problem!
The oven doesn't reach the selected temperature. For example. I set it to 400 , it will go to 355 or 360 and stays there. Ig won't beep like usually when it reaches the selected temperature. Maybe the real temperature inside the oven is more. Who knows
Hi Andrea, thank you for reaching out. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend replacing the temperature sensor, part number PS11732697, to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Where is the thermostat located for my LG Gas Oven. The temperature isn’t consistent. It heats to set temperature but when cooking the temperature increases causing inconsistent cooking. And would the thermostat be the problem?
Hi Barbara, thank you for reaching out. Yes, the issue is most probably because of the fault in the oven temperature sensor, part number PS11732697. It is located inside the rear wall. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!

My own is heating but not up very high, my meater+ probe is saying it's only 320 max (was only like 300 on convection). Will the temperature sensor fix this?
Hello Katherine, thank you for getting in touch. Yes, replacing the oven temperature sensor, part number PS11732697, is a very likely fix for the oven not reaching the proper temperature. A faulty sensor is a common cause for underheating, as the control board relies on its input to regulate the heat. We hope this helps.

Oven turns on but will not not heat and shows Code F9.
Hello Christine, thank you for the great question. According to our research, the F9 error code means the oven failed to exceed 150 degrees Fahrenheit after 5 minutes of preheating. We would recommend checking the temperature sensor, part number PS11732697, to fix the issue. Glad to be of help!

The oven heats erratically, changes about 30 degrees either way. I get a dead short across the sensor pin slots. Manual says 1090 ohms plus/minus 10 %. Is the sensor bad and how is the oven working at all with the sensor way out?
Hello Joe, thank you for your inquiry. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend replacing the temperature sensor, part number PS11732697, to solve the problem. A faulty temperature sensor can send incorrect readings to the control board and the oven may start to heat erratically. We hope that helps!
