Quick answer
Kenmore 665 wall oven code F3/E3: oven temperature above 950 degrees F in CLEAN mode, with the manual steps.
Model compatibility
Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F3/E3 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What thiscode means
Oven temperature is more than 950 F in Clean mode.
F3/E3 and Clean mode
When a Kenmore 665 model wall oven reads more than 950 degrees F in CLEAN mode, it displays F3/E3.
What the manual tells the owner
First disconnect power or unplug the wall oven. Then reconnect the oven temperature sensor wire if loose, and replace a damaged wire harness.
Technician checks
With a volt/ohm meter a technician measures the temperature sensor. If it does not show 1080 ohms at room temperature (70 degrees F), the sensor is replaced. If the sensor and harness connections are okay, the electronic oven control (EOC) is replaced.
Related codes
F3/E2 is the Bake mode counterpart, and F3/E0 flags an open sensor circuit.
