  1. Appliance Repair Assistant

    Christopher,
    Not sure if you typed it wrong but C3-E1 is not a known error code for Whirlpool ovens.
    The error code that we have in our database is F3-E1.

    An F3 E1 error code on your Whirlpool oven/range combo typically indicates an issue with the oven temperature sensor or its wiring. To troubleshoot and resolve this issue…

    Disconnect power: Before attempting any repairs or troubleshooting, unplug the oven or switch off the circuit breaker to ensure your safety.
    Check the oven temperature sensor: The oven temperature sensor is usually located near the back wall of the oven cavity. Inspect it for any visible signs of damage or wear.
    Check the wiring: Inspect the wiring between the oven temperature sensor and the control board. Look for any loose connections, damaged wires, or signs of corrosion.
    Test the sensor: You can test the oven temperature sensor using a multimeter. Disconnect the sensor from the wiring and measure its resistance. At room temperature (around 20°C or 68°F), the resistance should be approximately 1080-1100 ohms. If the resistance is significantly different, the sensor may be faulty.
    Replace the sensor if necessary: If the sensor is found to be faulty, replace it with a new one. Make sure to use a compatible replacement part for your specific Whirlpool oven/range combo model.
    Reconnect power and test: Once the issue has been resolved, reconnect the power supply, and test the oven to ensure it is functioning correctly.

    Hope this can help…

  11. I just replaced the bottom element on my whirlpool range (YWFE510S0AS0) after it started sparking and crackling.

I’ve reset the breaker panel and unplugged for 5 minutes but nothing works. The door lock seems fine. Any suggestions on what may be wrong ? Thank you

    Bohdanna Hansen,
    Whirlpool oven code “d o o r” describes that there is an issue with the door.
    Be sure the door is closed.
    If closed, the door switch may have a fault.
    Remove power to the oven and test the door switch.
