Question about replacing temperature sensor Brand: Magic Chef Model Number: 5898VRV Age: More than 10 years No F-codes at all... however, the indicated temperature is crazy... like reaches 475 in about 2 mins! (Of course real temp is about 175) I've managed to trick it into getting hotter by setting it at 545...but doesn't stop heating--it reaches what it thinks is 520 and never reads anything higher. Anyway, I'm 98% sure it is the temperature sensor. However, will I have to pull this entire oven away from the wall? I unscrewed the sensor in the oven but can't pull it all the way out.
I noticed some instructions that come with the part... can anyone tell me what to expect in replacing the sensor? Pulling the oven will be a -major- pain as it's built into the cabinets etc. If need to remove oven from the wall might as well get a new one as this oven is > 10 years old. Just trying to plan ahead before ordering the part. Thanks! |
