THERMADOR Error Code E3
Professional Ranges Models: PDR30/36/48…PRG30/36/48
ERROR CODE | DESCRIPTION | RESOLUTION |
CODE E3 | Turns heat off on failed oven only, micro not affected. Can be cancelled by tweaking if a good oven temperature sensor is detected. | Open oven temperature sensor (over 5000 ohms) |
The control continuously monitors system parameters for control as well as stove failings as well as reports a fault code when a system trouble is discovered. The control makes use of the ovens blue “on light” and oven “heating light” to report a spotted mistake code. The control will remain to blink the lights in the suitable sequence as long as the fault exists.
Detection of a fault does not prevent the capability of the control to remain to function if the fault is not critical for the desired operation. For example: If the range door lock is faulty, the range will continue to prepare given that the mistake would only protect against the range from self-cleaning.
HOW TO TRANSLATE CODES
When a mistake happens, the control will flash the blue oven “on light” and also the Blue “home heating light” sequentially to suggest the mistake. The fault codes have two numbers, these numbers are translated by the number of times the lights flash. The stove “on light” will blink showing the first number, and also the “home heating light” will blink showing the second number.
INSTANCE:
Mistake E9 is … No Cooling Fans. The code is 43. The oven “on light” will flash 4 times, then the “home heating light” will flash three times, after that time out. The series will then duplicate as long as the mistake is present.
ERROR CODES FOR OVENS WITH DREEFS CONTROL
The following graph shows the error codes that can be displayed in the Oven/Selector home window throughout particular stove malfunctions. Several of the mistake messages can be gotten rid of by executing the following actions:
ERROR MESSAGE | ERROR CODE NOTES | DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM |
E1 | C&E | Control board problem. |
E2 | G&K | Cook or Clean mode runaway (temp >635 °F) Clean mode runaway (clean temp +32 °F). |
E3 | A&H | Open oven temperature sensor (>5000 Ω). |
E4 | A&H | Shorted oven temperature sensor (<5000 Ω). |
E5 | K&D | Control board too cold, too hot, or defective. |
E6 | C&J | Control board problem. |
E7 | A&I | Illegal temperature display. Turn off oven and try again. |
E8 | A&D | Control board problem. |
E9 | A&E | Latch switch problem. |
E10 | B&D | Control board problem. |
E11 | A&F | CT oven – latch switch problem |
E12 | A&E | CT ovens – latch switch problem |
E13 | A&C | CT ovens – latch frozen or no power to latch motor. CMT ovens – control board not converted (refer to page 3-7 for conversion data). |
E14 | A&E | Latch switch problem. |
E15 | B&D | Control board problem. |
ERROR CODE NOTES | DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM |
A | Turns heat off on the failed oven only; microwave not affected. |
B | Turns all heat off; microwave not affected. |
C | Disables the CLEAN mode in both ovens; allows COOK and microwave. |
D | Error will remain in the display until oven is repaired and powered back up. No error tones. |
E | Turning the oven off stops the error and flashing display. Can tweak away the error code. Error is redisplayed only if the selector is turned to CLEAN. |
F | Tweaking clears to “—“ for retry. |
G | Clears when the oven temperature is less then the runaway temperature with the selector switch off. |
H | Can be cancelled by tweaking if a good sensor is detected. |
I | Cleared with a mode change. |
J | Can be tweaked away for immediate retry. User must unlatch and delete the “—“ to try to relatch the door. |
K | Turns heat and microwave off. |
L | If two switches show a locked door, then E13 and LOCK are permanent in the display (in all modes). If the two switches show an open door, tweak away the E13 error message. |
