Frigidaire 316490003 Oven Temperature Probe, Replacement with 12 Month Warranty & USA Business

Restore accurate temperature monitoring and consistent cooking performance with the Wholesale Sensors Replacement for Frigidaire 316490003 Oven Temperature Probe. Designed as a perfect OEM-style replacement, this oven temperature sensor is engineered to meet or exceed original functional specifications while providing dependable temperature feedback to the electronic control in compatible ranges and wall ovens.

Replacement for Frigidaire 316490003

The Frigidaire 316490003 is an oven temperature sensor designed to measure the temperature inside the oven cavity. The electronic oven control sends a low-voltage signal through the temperature sensor and evaluates the return signal to determine oven temperature. Accurate sensor feedback allows the control system to regulate the heating process and maintain the temperature selected by the user.

The 316490003 has since been superseded in OEM parts catalogs by Frigidaire 316490000. Common cross-reference and replacement numbers include 316490000, 316490002, 7316490000, 1197392, AP3963654, AH1528542, EA1528542, EAP1528542, and PS1528542. Additional distributor references associated with the current replacement include AP5989130, EAP11731755, PS11731755, AFR16190, and PD00000483.

Because several part numbers have been used during the production and service life of these appliances, always verify the complete appliance model and original sensor before ordering.

The current 316490000 replacement for 316490003 is also documented in newer appliances such as DGGF3046RFB and FGGF3059TFE.

Compatibility is determined by the complete model and production configuration, not simply by appliance brand or appearance. Always compare the original part number before purchasing.

Accurate Oven Temperature Feedback

The temperature probe is an important part of the oven’s heating control system. Its job is to monitor the temperature inside the oven cavity. As the cavity heats and cools, the sensor’s electrical characteristics change, allowing the electronic oven control to determine the current temperature and regulate the heating components accordingly.

Accurate temperature feedback helps the oven maintain more consistent conditions during baking, roasting, and other cooking cycles. When the original sensor becomes electrically defective or begins providing inaccurate readings, the control may respond to incorrect temperature information.

This can result in an oven that runs hotter or cooler than the selected setting, takes too long to reach temperature, cycles incorrectly, or produces inconsistent cooking results.

Helps Correct Common Oven Problems

Documented symptoms associated with a faulty sensor include an oven that is too hot, little or no heat during baking, uneven baking, inaccurate oven temperature, a heating element that does not operate as expected, or an oven that fails to start properly.

A failing temperature probe may also cause an electric range to heat unevenly or fail to heat correctly.

These symptoms do not automatically prove that the sensor is defective. Similar oven problems can result from a damaged bake element, broil element, gas igniter, wiring connection, relay, electronic oven control, or power supply issue. The temperature sensor can be checked with a multimeter to determine whether its resistance is appropriate for the temperature being measured.

Appliance fault codes are also model-specific. Although some ovens can display temperature-related fault codes when the sensor circuit is open, shorted, or reporting an abnormal condition, a specific code should not automatically be interpreted as proof that 316490003 needs replacement. Consult the service information for the exact range or wall oven.

Durable Replacement Construction

The Wholesale Sensors replacement is built with a durable temperature-sensing probe and dependable electrical connection for use in the high-temperature environment of an oven cavity. Each sensor is rigorously tested for temperature response, electrical performance, sensing consistency, and reliability.

This replacement is intended to restore the original temperature-sensing function without changing the operation of the appliance. It is not a heating element or electronic control board. Instead, it supplies the temperature information the compatible control system needs to regulate oven heating.

Straightforward Installation

Replacing the oven temperature probe is generally a straightforward repair on compatible appliances. Repair documentation for the current replacement indicates that the sensor can often be changed by disconnecting power, removing the mounting hardware, disconnecting the sensor connector, and installing the new probe in the original position.

Always disconnect electrical power before beginning installation. Frigidaire replacement guidance specifically recommends unplugging the appliance before servicing the temperature sensor.

Take note of the original probe position and connector before removal. Some production configurations may use a different connector style or require the appropriate adapter. Do not modify wiring unless the applicable service procedure specifically calls for it.

After installation, verify that the sensor is securely mounted inside the oven cavity and that the electrical connection is fully seated. If temperature problems remain, additional diagnosis of the wiring, electronic control, heating components, and power supply may be necessary.
