What the LEDs 1,2 error code actually means

Your Electrolux oven has shut itself down because it detected that the temperature inside climbed higher than it should safely go. This is a built-in safety feature to prevent overheating or a potential fire. The oven needs to be inspected and repaired before it is safe to use again.

Questions people ask about LEDs 1,2

What does LEDs 1,2 mean on a Electrolux range?
LEDs 1 and 2 illuminated together on an Electrolux range indicate a runaway temperature fault, meaning the oven's control system has detected that the oven temperature exceeded safe operating limits. The control board monitors the oven temperature probe continuously and triggers this fault when it receives readings that suggest the oven is dangerously hot. This is a safety lockout condition that requires diagnosis before the oven can be used again.
Will resetting my Electrolux range clear the LEDs 1,2 error?
Cycling power to the range may temporarily clear the fault display, but if the underlying problem with the temperature probe or control board is not corrected, the error will return once the oven is used again. A reset does not fix the root cause and should not be relied upon as a solution. Always diagnose and repair the fault before returning the appliance to service.
How much does it cost to repair the LEDs 1,2 runaway temperature error on an Electrolux range?
Repair costs vary depending on which component has failed. An oven temperature probe is generally the less expensive fix, with parts typically ranging from $20 to $60 plus labor if a technician is doing the work. Replacing the electronic control board is more costly, with parts often ranging from $150 to $350 or more depending on the specific model, plus labor. Getting a diagnostic visit from a qualified appliance technician will help confirm which part is at fault before purchasing components.
Is it safe to use my Electrolux range when LEDs 1 and 2 are showing?
No, the oven should not be used while this fault is active. A runaway temperature condition means the oven's safety limits have been exceeded, which poses a potential fire and burn hazard. Stop using the oven, disconnect power if the oven is still running, and have the temperature probe and control board inspected before attempting to cook again.
How do I fix the LEDs 1,2 error on my Electrolux range?
Start by testing the resistance of the oven temperature probe with a multimeter. At room temperature, the probe should read between 1050 and 1100 ohms. If the reading falls outside that range, replace the probe. If the probe tests within specification, the electronic control board is the next likely cause and should be replaced. Also inspect the wiring harness between the probe and board for any damage.
