F11Warning

Kenmore Oven/Range F11 Error Code

The oven temperature sensor (RTD) is reading as open (infinite resistance) or disconnected.

Common causes

  • Loose wire connection at sensor or control board
  • Faulty oven temperature sensor
  • Broken wire harness

How to fix it

  1. Unplug the range
  2. Remove the oven back panel to access the sensor (usually at top rear)
  3. Check that the sensor connector is firmly plugged in
  4. Measure sensor resistance with a multimeter (should be ~1090 ohms at room temp)
⚠ When to call a pro: If resistance is out of range or connections are good but code persists, replace the sensor or call a pro.
