OVER HEATED

The electric oven wouldn't work yesterday. We called. The guy came.

It is the heat sensor.

I like these guys. They have so much experience. When I said that it didn't work and we saw the flasher F3, he knew it was the sensor.

I said that I had just cleaned the oven. He stopped me. "Say no more".

"You should never use the oven self clean".

Too hot. 500-600 F. Too long. Up to six hours. Mine is 4.5. It fries the circuits or oven parts.

I asked how to clean then.

He took a rag and showed me a wiping motion on the counter. "Do this with oven cleaner on the rag". And he changed hands.

Here is another way to do it. Same motion, different hand.

Oh. I got it.

The new oven sensor comes tomorrow.

Never too old to learn something.
