With power disconnected, inspect the sensor body, connector, harness adapters, and wiring for visible damage, looseness, corrosion, or pinched wires. If the appliance-specific technical documentation provides a resistance specification, measure the sensor across its terminals with the sensor disconnected; Whirlpool range service documentation commonly specifies approximately 1000–1200 ohms at room temperature, but the model-specific documentation should control. If the sensor resistance is normal, inspect the wiring path and connections before attributing the symptom to the sensor; the sensor test alone does not prove that the sensor is the cause. Pro Tip Because this is the short approximately 3-inch kit, compare the old sensor length and connector arrangement before installation; use the included harness adapter only when required by the appliance wiring.

Use the model-specific installation instructions and confirm that the replacement sensor has the same short length and mounting arrangement as the removed part. Route and secure the sensor wiring so it is not pinched, contacting hot surfaces, or exposed to the oven cavity beyond the intended sensor location. Connect the appropriate included harness adapter only as specified for the appliance; do not modify wiring unless the appliance-specific instructions explicitly require it. After reassembly, restore power and verify operation according to the appliance documentation; a temperature-sensor replacement does not by itself confirm that other heating or control components are functional.
