GE WB23T10015 Range/Stove/Oven Sensor

We have an older GE Profile electric range. The model number starts with JSP47xxxxxx, can’t read the rest of it anymore. The other day when attempting to use the oven, it beeped and came up with a “F3” on the display. After a quick google it turns out it is either the circuit board or the temperature sensor having gone bad. Luckily, it’s easy to pull out and test the sensor. Sure enough, with a multimeter it was clearly not showing the recommended 1082 Ohms. I searched everywhere for the sensor part but couldn’t find it anywhere. A Amazon search showed one reviewer here mentioning the same WBT21T1004 sensor number and having successfully replaced his sensor. I ordered it and installed it today. Everything fits perfectly. When I plugged the range back in the F3 was gone and it worked perfectly. I set the oven to 375F and let it come up to temperature and measured it with a IR thermometer and a meat thermometer. Both were within a few degrees of 375F, so it appears this is the perfect replacement part.

This GE temperature probe was for my GE oven model JTP70DP2WW (white, in wall style). 1 bolt secures probe, which is a T20 torx style head. Removed power at home circuit breaker. I did have to remove or slide out the oven and remove ~12 sheet metal screws to get to harness and disconnect. Disconnected old probe from harness, slid out probe into oven. Then new probe connector slides in from oven to back and reconnected. Reassembled sheet metal cover, replaced oven. I used a large cooler as a "table" to carefully slide the oven out of the wall cavity. Overall, 1 hr job. Pretty easy. All of the sheet metal screws were 1/4 nut size. I have a power drill that sped the process.

The last unit only lasted 3 years !

Exact GE OEM part. Came quickly. From time i placed order till new part was installed and oven was working was less than 24 hours. WOW great service. Would have spent all day calling and driving around locally looking for new part.

I first ordered the wrong oven probe/sensor for my older model Ge Profile oven. Food cooked or baked was horribly off. Using a good oven thermometer helped determine true temperature. Ordered the correct sensor and it works consistently now, but still off by 20 degrees. Finally, I found the manual and used its code to set the oven temperature down to match. It now works perfectly! Always a good practice to buy a manual oven thermometer to check accuracy of any oven temperature.

Brand new OEM part fit and instructions were easy to follow.

I saved about $400 by doing this myself. My oven’s sensor was a WB21T10004 but this one works perfectly. I had to remove the door (for better access), Untighten old sensor, and untighten the broiler coils on top - and their origin, 4 small bolts in total (to allow old cord to come out of the back.) Took about 2 hours because I was careful… and was watching the YouTube videos that exactly show the procedure. (The hardest part was disconnecting the little clip from old cord to the sensor itself… but got it done). This is very doable… I’m no mechanical genius.

My GE built-in Double Oven had been trouble free for well over a decade then over a period of year it seemed to not get hot enough. Basically the temps we set the oven for "appeared" to hold; however, the items had to be cooked longer to achieve desired outcomes. Suddenly one day the oven spontaneously shut down and gave a "F2" error. I shut the oven down restarted and it appeared to work fine. Then over the course of the next few weeks it would suddenly shut down without any error message. I read some commentary here on Amazon and elsewhere stating that this thermo-sensor could be bad. I couldn't find the exact part number but someone had done the footwork to learn that this part is the replacement for the old part.Replacing the sensor was surprisingly easy. Simply turn off the oven at the circuit breaker. (I did have to remove the front oven door to gain easier access which you may not have to). Remove the single screw holding the sensor. I had to remove the upper heating element (did not disconnect the wiring just the hardware so it can be pulled away from the rear of the oven) so the connector could be accessed easier. Disconnect the old sensor and plug in the new sensor. Reattach all the parts. Bam! Fixed! Turn on the breaker and test the oven.It has been three weeks and the oven has been continuously used for baking and cooking for the holidays. The oven now seems to be holding the proper temps as determined by IR thermometer. No more spontaneous shutdowns!
