Electrolux Range Error Code Convection Bake + Clean (LEDs 2,5)

This LED combination indicates that the electronic control board has detected an open circuit in the oven temperature probe circuit. The probe is a resistance-based sensor that reports oven temperature to the control board, and an open circuit means no valid signal is being received. The oven will not operate normally until the fault is resolved. The probe resistance should measure between 1050 and 1100 ohms at room temperature.

No, you should not attempt to use the oven while this error is active. The fault means the control board cannot monitor oven temperature, so it has no way to regulate heat safely during cooking or self-clean cycles. Using the oven in this condition risks uncontrolled temperatures. The fault should be diagnosed and repaired before resuming oven use.

Resetting the range by cutting power at the breaker may temporarily clear the error display, but the fault code will return as soon as the control board attempts to read the probe circuit again. Because this error reflects an actual electrical fault in the probe circuit rather than a software glitch, a reset does not address the underlying problem. The probe, wiring, or control board must be physically inspected and repaired to resolve the issue permanently.

A knowledgeable DIYer can diagnose this fault by using a multimeter to measure the resistance of the oven temperature probe at its connector. If the reading falls outside the 1050 to 1100 ohm range, the probe can be replaced as a straightforward repair. If the probe tests good, the next steps involve checking the wiring harness for continuity and then evaluating the control board, which are more involved repairs.

Cost depends on the failed component. An oven temperature probe typically ranges from around $20 to $60 in parts, making it the least expensive repair. A replacement electronic control board is considerably more expensive, often ranging from $150 to $350 or more depending on the specific model. Adding professional labor can bring the total repair cost to $200 to $500 or higher.
