What to do if the door latch is not operating on my Whirlpool Ranges?
- H
  Howard NelsonJul 31, 2025
  To troubleshoot a door latch that is not operating on your Whirlpool Range: 1. First, verify the error code by pressing and holding the CANCEL/OFF key for 5 seconds, then momentarily press CANCEL again to remove the error code display. 2. Next, program and start the Clean mode to see if the door locks. If it doesn't, check the locking mechanism from the solenoid to the latch pawl and door to identify the problem. Note that if the door doesn't lock, the F5 E1 code will reappear one minute after starting the Clean mode; press CANCEL to clear it. 3. After fixing any mechanical issues, start a Clean cycle again to ensure the door lock operates correctly, canceling it immediately afterward to check the door unlock function.

How to fix an open oven sensor (top) on Whirlpool RF196LXK Ranges?
- J
  Joseph WaltersAug 19, 2025
  To address an open oven sensor (top) in Whirlpool Ranges: 1. Measure the sensor value (between connector pins). It should be between 1000 Ohms at 32 °F and 2697 Ohms at 900 °F (room temperature should be around 1080 Ohms). If the measurement doesn't match the actual temperature, disconnect power and replace the sensor. Also, check for shorts by measuring from the sensor connector to the sensor casing. 2. Trace the wires and connectors from the control to the sensor and back. If the connections are good and there's no wire damage: * Disconnect power for more than 30 seconds. * Re-apply power and observe for more than 1 minute. 3. If the problem continues, disconnect power, replace the control.
