3. Slide the old sensor out of the retainer. Thread a new sensor through the
opening in the rear of the oven.
4. Slide the new sensor under the retainer. One of the grill holes on the front
of the shroud is stamped. Make sure that the end of the sensor is
positioned behind the stamped hole before tightening the retainer.
