The Broil Element Does Not Heat - Electrolux 30" Service Manual

F3 code:
An F3 indicates a defective sensor, electronic oven
control or the wiring in between. To determine which
part is defective:
1. Disconnect the 15 pin plug from the back of the oven
control that connects the sensor to the oven control.
2. With an Ohmmeter measure the resistance between
pins 12 and 13 in the plug (not on the control board).
If the meter reads around the value of the oven
temperature sensor shown in the below resistance
chart, the oven control is defective. If the meter reads
less than 800 Ohms or more than 3000 Ohms, go to
step 3.
RTD
Temperature Degrees F.
32 +/- 1.9
75 +/- 2.5
250 +/- 4.4
350 +/- 5.4
450 +/- 6.9
550 +/- 8.2
650 +/- 9.6
900 +/- 13.6
3. Disconnect the harness from the oven sensor and
measure the resistance of the oven sensor. If the
reading is less than 800 Ohms or more than 3000
Ohms, the oven sensor is defective. If the reading
is correct with the chart, the harness is defective.
F9 code:
An F9 code indicates the control has detected a problem
with the motor door latch assembly. Check the contacts
of the lock switch, wiring to the lock motor assembly,
and the lock motor.
Control will not program:
If the control will not program check for an open sensor
circuit. If the sensor circuit is good replace the control.
Time bake does not operate:
If the normal bake feature operates but the time bake
feature does not operate check to be sure it is being
programmed correctly. If so, replace the EOC.
Blank display:
If the display on the oven control is blank and the range
connected to electrical power:
SCALE
Resistance (Ohms)
1000 +/- 4.0
1091 +/- 5.3
1453 +/- 8.9

1852 +/- 13.5
2047 +/- 15.8
2237 +/- 18.5
2697 +/- 24.4
1. Go to the back of the control and measure the
voltage drop between terminal L1 and neutral. If the
meter reads line to neutral voltage (120 VAC) the
control is defective. If the meter reads zero the
wiring in the range is defective.
No heat:
If the control appears to be operating normally, but
the bake and broil elements do not heat:
1. Go to the back of the oven control and measure the
voltage drop between terminals L1 and P4. If the
meter reads zero and if the display is illuminated,
the wire between terminal IN and the range terminal
block is open. If the meter reads line to line voltage
(240 VAC) go to step 2.
2. Program the oven for bake and measure the voltage
drop between terminals BAKE and P7. If the
meter reads zero the control is defective. If the meter
reads line to line voltage (240VAC) the bake
element or the wiring to the bake element is
defective. Go to step 3.
3. Program the oven for broil and measure the voltage
drop between terminals BROIL and P7. If the
meter reads zero the control is defective. If the meter
reads line to line voltage (240VAC) the broil element
or the wiring to the broil element is defective.
If the control appears to be operating normally, the
broil element heats, but the bake element does
not heat:
1. Program the oven for bake, go to the back of the
oven control and measure the voltage drop between
terminals BAKE and P7. If the meter reads zero
the control is defective. If the meter reads line to
line voltage (240 VAC) the bake element or the wiring
to the bake element is defective. Go to step 2.
2. Remove the back from the range to gain access to
the terminals of the bake element. Program the oven
control for bake and measure the voltage drop across
the terminals of the bake element. If the meter reads
line to line voltage (240VAC) the element is defective.
If the meter reads zero the wiring to the element is
open.
If the control appears to be operating normally, the
bake element heats, but the broil element does
not heat:
1. Program the oven for broil, go to the back of the
oven control and measure the voltage drop between
terminals BROIL and P7. If the meter reads zero
