What Does Error Code F30 Mean on a Frigidaire Oven?

Oven temperature probe failure — open circuit.

The Electronic Oven Control reads an open circuit on the oven temperature probe (RTD), so it has no valid cavity temperature and won't run bake or broil safely. A burned-out probe or a loose/broken connection at the board is the usual cause.

What Causes Error Code F30?

Here are the most common causes in order of frequency. Start with the most likely cause before moving to the next:

  1. 1
    Probe burned out 70% of cases
  2. 2
    Connector loose at board 20% of cases
  3. 3
    Wiring damaged 10% of cases

How to Fix Frigidaire Oven Error Code F30

🔧 Easy DIY Est. time: 10–20 min
⚡ Safety first: Unplug the appliance before opening any panels or touching internal components.
  1. 1

    Power cycle the oven

    Turn off the circuit breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power to rule out a transient fault.

  2. 2

    Test the probe resistance

    With power off, measure the probe — about 1,100 ohms at room temperature; an open/infinite reading confirms failure.

    🔩 Multimeter
    ⚠️ Disconnect power before testing.
  3. 3

    Check the probe connector

    Inspect and reseat the probe plug at the rear of the cavity and at the control board for a loose or burned pin.

  4. 4

    Replace the probe

    Unscrew the probe from the oven back wall and fit a matching Frigidaire probe, verifying resistance.

How to Reset Error Code F30

After replacing the probe, restore power at the breaker and run a short bake cycle to confirm F30 has cleared and the oven holds temperature. If it returns, recheck the connector.

Note: If the error returns after resetting, the underlying issue has not been resolved. Work through the fix steps above.

When to Call a Professional

If a new probe tests correctly and the connector is sound but F30 persists, the control board's sensor input circuit has failed and the board needs professional replacement.

Average professional repair cost for this issue: $150–$320

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I keep using my Frigidaire Oven when error F30 appears? +
You often can for a cycle or two, but the sensor issue behind F30 will keep interrupting normal operation until it is fixed. Plan the repair rather than ignoring the code.
What most commonly causes F30 on a Frigidaire Oven? +
Across reported Frigidaire oven repairs, the most frequent is probe burned out (70% of cases), connector loose at board (20%), then wiring damaged (10%). Check them in that order before replacing any parts.
F30 keeps coming back after a reset — what should I check next? +
A reset only clears the stored F30 fault; if it returns, the sensor problem is still present. Move on to the physical checks — power cycle the oven, then test the probe resistance — since the code will reappear until the root cause is resolved. This is a beginner-friendly job needing only basic hand tools.
How much does it cost to fix Frigidaire Oven error F30? +
A DIY repair typically runs $25–$55 in parts, versus $150–$320 for a professional service call, so handling it yourself saves around $125. Expect the work to take about 10–20 minutes.
