Remove power first.

Due to productions changes and continuous improvements, it may be necessary to use an adaptor wire harness or wire nuts for a compatible connection.

Remove screws from inside the oven and pull towards you the inoperative sensor.

If the connection on the sensor or the wire harness is not applicable to your model, use two ceramic hi-temp wire nut connectors to splice the wires together. Strip insulation on each wire approximately 1/2" from the end. On some models, the sensor may be serviced  from the front, on others the hole in the oven liner is not large enough for the wire nut/connector to pass through and must be serviced from the rear.

Important:  Make sure the wire nuts/connectors are completely through the insulation and not touching the back of the oven cavity.

Once the wire nuts/connectors are properly positioned, reinstall the sensor screws removed earlier.
