Frigidaire Range Error Code F10

F10 means the Electronic Oven Control (EOC) has detected a runaway temperature condition in the oven. This means the oven temperature is rising beyond the set limit without the control board being able to regulate it. The two most common culprits are a failed RTD sensor probe giving the EOC bad temperature data, or a stuck relay on the EOC itself keeping the heating element powered on continuously.

Start by testing the RTD sensor probe with a multimeter. At room temperature, it should read approximately 1080-1100 ohms. If the reading is out of range, replace the probe. After replacing the sensor, restore power and monitor oven behavior. If the oven continues to overheat with a known-good sensor installed, the EOC board has a stuck relay and needs to be replaced. Both repairs are achievable for experienced DIYers, but EOC replacement on some models requires careful wiring documentation before removal.

Yes, this is a common presentation of a failed RTD sensor probe. The oven may not actually be overheating if the probe has failed in a way that sends an erratic or out-of-range signal to the EOC, which then triggers the F10 fault as a protective measure even without real overheating occurring. Test the probe resistance with a multimeter and compare against the specification in your service manual. If the reading is incorrect, replacing the RTD probe will likely clear the F10 code.

No. You should not use the oven while F10 is active. A runaway temperature condition means the oven may not stop heating at the correct temperature, which creates a fire hazard and can damage the appliance. Disconnect power to the range immediately if the oven is physically overheating, and do not restore power until the RTD sensor probe and EOC have been inspected and repaired as needed.

An RTD sensor probe is the less expensive fix, typically costing between $20 and $50 for the part, and is a direct DIY replacement in most Frigidaire range models. If the EOC board is the cause, the board itself generally runs $100 to $300 depending on the model, plus labor if you hire a technician. Professional diagnosis and repair for an F10 code typically totals $150 to $400 depending on which part is at fault and local labor rates.
