How this visit actually goes
The same order every time, so nothing is opened and nothing is charged before you have seen the figure and said yes.
-
01
Ask which cavity
On a double or triple oven the code says: E1xx is the upper cavity, E2xx the lower. The other cavity often bakes perfectly, which is worth knowing before anything is booked.
-
02
Sensor or element
A sensor reading open gives no temperature at all; a sensor reading short tells the control the oven is cold, so it keeps heating. Those are opposite symptoms from the same small part.
-
03
Test the circuit, not just the part
The published cause names the circuit — sensor, harness, and the plug at the control module. The harness is tested before the sensor is condemned.
-
04
Verify with a thermometer
An oven is signed off against a reading, not against the display agreeing with itself.

Oven repair cost
What it costs when an oven will not heat or will not hold a temperature. The sensor and the element are different parts at different prices, and the code usually says which.
- National range for oven repair: $130–$350
- Sensor $100–$250, element $150–$450 as parts and labor
- On a double oven the code names the cavity

Masterpiece · Professional · Steam · Speed Thermador wall oven repair in Miami
Built in at eye level, often two cavities in one cabinet, and increasingly one of the two is a steam oven with a water circuit of its own. "The oven is broken" almost always means one cavity of the pair, and which one narrows the job considerably.
- Not heating or not holding temperature
- The touch panel unresponsive after a long cycle
- The door locked after a self-clean

Professional · 30" 36" 48" 60" Thermador range repair in Miami
The appliance the brand is built around. A Professional range is two machines sharing a cabinet — a cooktop with star burners or an induction surface on top, and an oven underneath — and the two fail in completely different ways. Knowing which half you are describing shortens the visit before anybody arrives.
- A burner that clicks and will not light
- The oven not reaching or holding temperature
- The griddle heating unevenly across the plate

About Thermador oven element and sensor repair
Two cavities, two sets of codes
On a double or triple oven the numbering tells you which cavity is reporting before anyone opens anything: E101 and E201 are the same condition in the upper and lower cavity, and the same is true of E104/E204, E115/E215 and E118/E218. That is not trivia — it is the difference between booking a repair for the oven you use and for the one you do not.
What the codes cover
- The cavity temperature sensor, its harness and the plug at the control module
- The elements, which fail open and usually stop heating rather than heating wrongly
- The safety limit — the condition that means the cavity is genuinely too hot
- The cooling fan, which protects the cabinetry and has its own condition
What decides the figure
Sensor or element, and whether the oven has to come out of the cabinetry. A wall oven in a tall unit is a two-person lift before any repair begins.

Before you book
Questions about thermador oven element and sensor repair
My oven runs hot. Is that the sensor or the calibration?
Either, and they are different repairs. A shorted sensor reads cold to the control, which then genuinely overheats — E104 and, at the safety limit, E115. A small consistent offset with no code is usually calibration, which is an adjustment rather than a part.
The display shows E115. Can I keep using it?
No. That one means the cavity is hotter than the design allows with the door unlocked. Switch it off at the breaker if it is still heating with nothing selected, and call. It is the one condition on this list we would rather you did not wait on.
Only the top oven has stopped working.
Then the code will begin E1, and the lower cavity is untouched. Double ovens share a control module but not their elements or sensors, so this is usually one repair rather than two.
