This section contains removal and replacement procedures for the
components that can be accessed from the front of the range.
4.7.1

Oven Temperature Sensor Removal and Replacement

The oven temperature sensor is located inside each oven cavity
(see Figure 165). Access is needed from both the front and back of
the range in order to replace the sensor bulb.
Be sure to check QuickFinder for relevant information, documentation,
and the correct part number when replacing this component.
1. Follow all safety precautions and steps in Preparing the Range for
Servicing, page 21.
2. Remove the backguard (see Backguard and Island Trim Removal
and Replacement, page 73).
3. Remove the back panels (see Back Panel Removal and
Replacement, page 74).
4. Remove oven door (see Oven Door Removal, Installation,
page 88).
NOTE: It is recommended to remove the door, to prevent weight
or force applied from damaging the door and latch components.
5. Remove oven trays.
6. From inside the oven cavity, remove and retain the two screws
(see Figure 165, page 85).
7. At the back of the range, detach the sensor wire connectors.

through the sensor portal.
9. At the front of the range, gently pull the sensor connector wires
through the portal.
10. Replace the sensor if necessary.
