Amana AGR5330BAS 30 in 4.8 cu ft Gas Range 18,000 BTU Sealed Burners with Storage Drawer F3E1 Error Fix: Shorted Oven Temperature Sensor

The oven temperature sensor (RTD) circuit is reading as shorted (near 0 ohms). The ERC interprets this as an extremely high temperature reading. Check the sensor wiring for pinched, melted, or bare wires touching the oven frame or each other. Inspect the sensor connector for bent pins or moisture. Disconnect the sensor and measure its resistance — it should read approximately 1080 ohms at 70°F. If near 0 ohms, the sensor is shorted and must be replaced. If the sensor reads correctly but the code persists, the wiring harness is the problem.
