Admiral A3510PPW 30 in 5.0 cu ft Electric Range with Self-Clean Oven and Storage Drawer F4 Error Fix: Oven Temperature Sensor Shorted

Error code F4 on the Admiral A3510PPW 30 in 5.0 cu ft Electric Range with Self-Clean Oven and Storage Drawer means: Oven Temperature Sensor Shorted. The oven temperature sensor (RTD) circuit is reading as shorted (near 0 ohms). The ERC interprets this as an extremely high temperature and will shut off all oven heating elements. Check the sensor wiring for pinched, melted, or bare wires that may be touching the oven frame or each other. Inspect the sensor connector at the ERC for bent pins or moisture damage. Disconnect the sensor and measure its resistance — it should read approximately 1080 ohms at 70°F. If the sensor itself reads near 0 ohms, it has failed and must be replaced. If the sensor reads correctly but the code persists, the issue is in the wiring harness.
