Temperature Sensor (RTD) Removal

(VGSC548 Left Oven)

Condition Requirements:
Door Assembly Removed
1. Remove two screws that attach the sensor to the
back of the oven liner.
2. Pull the sensor from the liner until the sensor
connector protrudes into the oven cavity.
Note: On some early production models, the opening
in the oven cavity that the RTD attaches had
a smaller diameter, causing the Molex plug
to restrict while pulling the wires forward. The
options would be to either pull the range to
replace the RTD or pull the RTD forward and cut
the two wires and splice in the replacement with
the use of two (2) ceramic wire nut connectors.
3. Apply side pressure to the sensor connector to
secure the connector against the opening in the oven
liner.
4. While maintaining side pressure on the connector,
disconnect the old sensor and connect the new
sensor.
Note: When installing the oven sensor, it may be
helpful to insert a small screwdriver or awl into
the connector and push the wiring and connector
into place.
5. Install two screws that attach the sensor to the back
of the oven liner.
