# JennAir stove showing F3E4

F3 E4 on a JennAir stove concerns the meat probe.

## What F3E4 actually means.

F3 E4 on a JennAir stove concerns the meat probe. JennAir's first step is making sure the probe is pushed securely into its socket.

What to do when F3E4 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 Runs Hot or Cold

Recipes take much longer or much less time than they should, cakes burn on the outside and stay raw inside, or an oven thermometer disagrees with the display by more than a little.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for F3E4 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Push the probe plug firmly into its socket; the socket position varies by model.

02

If the code stays, remove the probe and reset the breaker for one minute.

03

If F3 E4 appears with no probe plugged in, book a visit for the socket and wiring.

### 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

F3 E4 is not the main oven sensor. Normal baking without the probe usually still works.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about F3E4.

### Can I clear F3E4 myself?

Push the probe plug firmly into its socket; the socket position varies by model. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does my JennAir stove show F3 E4 when the probe is plugged in?

A plug that is only partly seated, or a probe cable that has been pinched in the door, reads badly. Reseat it and check the cable for damage.

### Can I cook on my JennAir stove without the probe while F3 E4 is showing?

Remove the probe and reset power. If the code clears, bake normally and use a separate thermometer until the probe is sorted.

### Is a new probe the fix for F3 E4 on a JennAir stove?

If the code follows the probe, yes. If it stays with the probe removed, the socket or the wiring behind it is the problem.
