Bosch lists e101 when the stove's temperature sensor malfunctions. Its first check is unusual: make sure the power cord wires match the colors of the wires on the stove, which matters after a move or a new install. Bosch stove display What to do when e101 shows on the stove ### Kind of code Temperature sensor The thin probe on the back wall of the oven sent the stove a reading it would not trust, or one that kept climbing past the setting.

If the stove was recently installed or moved, have the cord connection checked: the cord wire colors should match the stove's wire colors. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### My Bosch showed e101 right after we moved. Is the sensor broken? Bosch's first step is to check that the power cord is wired correctly, which is easy to disturb in a move. Keep the breaker off until someone checks it. ### Can I rewire the cord on my Bosch myself for e101? Leave it to an electrician or installer. Working on a 240-volt connection is not a safe do-it-yourself job. ### Why would a wiring mistake show up as a sensor code on my Bosch? A wrong connection can give the control odd readings from its sensor. Once the cord is corrected, the code often clears. --- **[Read on the site: Bosch freestanding stove shows e101 | StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/error-codes/bosch-e101/)** **[Book a visit with StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/schedule/)**
