Replacing the Temperature Probe (Gas)

1/2 in. wrench
The temperature probe relays the actual oil temperature to the control board. If it becomes disabled, "E06" will show in the display. Also, if the oil temperature is out of calibration by more than 10°F or C° the probe should be replaced. An Ohm check can be performed as well. See chart.
