Turn the oven off. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### My KitchenAid roast came out overdone before F3 E3 showed. Related? Possibly. A sensor that reads low can let the oven run hot. ### Is F3 E3 on a KitchenAid different from other F3 codes? This one names only the sensor and its wiring, not the control. ### Can I use the stovetop with F3 E3 on my KitchenAid? The code is about the oven sensor. The burners are usually fine. --- **[Read on the site: KitchenAid stove showing F3 E3 | StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/error-codes/kitchenaid-f3-e3/)** **[Book a visit with StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/schedule/)**
