Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power before removing panels.
- Check for probe plugged in: If your GE Profile has a meat probe feature, ensure the probe is fully removed from the jack. Some models show F31 if the jack senses an open or partial connection.
- Inspect probe jack: Look inside the probe receptacle for bent or corroded contacts. Clean gently or replace the jack if damaged.
- Test oven sensor: If the tech sheet indicates F31 is for the oven sensor, test it as described for F3/F4 and replace if open.
- Check wiring: Verify continuity from the probe jack or sensor to the control board.
