# Electrolux stove shows F30 or F31

In Electrolux's wording, F30 is an open probe and F31 a shorted one.

## What F30 actually means.

In Electrolux's wording, F30 is an open probe and F31 a shorted one. Either way the temperature reading is not usable, and the oven will not hold its heat.

What to do when F30 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. A loose plug behind the stove or a probe knocked against the racks is ruled out before the sensor or the board is replaced. If the oven keeps getting hotter with the controls turned off, switch the stove off at its breaker first.

### Usually leads to Stove oven heating repair

The oven part of a stove that stays cold, heats slowly or bakes too hot or too cool, fixed at the bake and broil elements, the oven igniter, the gas valve or the temperature sensor.

### Shows up as Oven on My Stove Won't Heat Up

The burners on top work, but the oven underneath stays cold, heats only a little, or never reaches the temperature you set.

### Make Electrolux

A Swedish appliance group whose stoves in American kitchens often have their controls along the front edge.

### Source Electrolux: error code F30

For F30, the source is this: Electrolux's owner support code guide, written for its earlier electric models (the articles say Electric Ranges); the current ECF gas, dual fuel and induction stoves show Err with a number instead.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Electrolux's own guidance for F30 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Take the stove off power for as long as 30 seconds.

02

Unplug a meat probe if one is in the oven, and try again.

03

A code that keeps returning calls for a visit to meter the oven sensor and its leads.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [stove oven heating repair](https://stoverepair.center/services/stove-oven-heating-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

F30 and F31 are not overheating codes. They point at the sensor circuit, not at the heat itself.

## What you may notice with it.

The stove problems F30 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the stove before anyone is booked.

## Questions about F30.

### Can I clear F30 myself?

Take the stove off power for as long as 30 seconds. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Is F31 on my Electrolux worse than F30?

Neither is worse; they describe the circuit as shorted or open. A short often points at a pinched wire, which the technician checks along with the sensor.

### Can I use my Electrolux burners while the oven shows F30?

The code concerns the oven reading, so the top may still work. Do not bake again before the probe circuit has been tested.

### Why did F30 appear on my Electrolux right after self-clean?

Heat from the cycle can open a weak connection at the sensor. A visit confirms whether it is the sensor or the plug.
