GE Oven F2 — Oven Over-Temperature
GE Oven · Error code F2
What F2 Means
F2 means the control sensed the oven temperature climbed above the safe limit. The oven shuts off heat to protect itself.
Most Likely Fix
Oven temperature exceeds limit during bake or clean cycle
Tools: screwdriver, nut driver, multimeter
Diagnose first: RTD should read ~1080 ohms at room temp. Out-of-spec sensor sends false high-temp signal. If sensor checks good, the ERC relay is likely stuck closed.

Symptoms
- Oven shuts off during use
- F2 beeping/flashing
- Oven runs too hot
Common Causes
A sensor reading low makes the control overheat the oven.
A welded bake/broil relay keeps the element powered.
A grounded bake or broil element.
How to Fix It
- Turn the oven off; if F2 appears during self-clean, let it cool and retry a normal bake.
- Unplug and measure the oven sensor resistance (about 1080-1090 ohms at room temp for GE).
- If the sensor is in spec, suspect a stuck relay on the control board.
