What GE range code F3 means and what the support chart advises.
Model compatibility: GE reuses codes across series and model years, so F3 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Oven sensor fault.
The F3 message on a GE range or wall oven concerns the oven sensor. GE’s chart says it usually means the sensor needs to be replaced. That entry covers electronic oven controls, generation unknown.
Next step
Contact a trained service technician. Sensor replacement is not presented as an owner job, so avoid opening the oven back or probing wires yourself.
F2 reports temperature beyond a preset threshold, which can look related.
F350 refers to the cooling fan circuit rather than the sensor.
