Fisher & Paykel Legacy Range Code 30 F0: Temperature Probe ST1 Short Circuit

What 30 F0 means

Older freestanding Fisher & Paykel OR24, OR36 and OR48 ranges, for example the OR24SDMBGX1 and OR48DDPWGX1, show 30 F0 when temperature probe ST1 reads as a short circuit or its cable is damaged. The control no longer trusts the oven temperature, so it stops heating. You see 30 F0 on the display and the oven stays cold or shuts off. Cooktop burners are usually unaffected while this shows.

Common causes of 30 F0

Temperature probe ST1 shorted internally
Damaged or pinched probe cable
Poor connection at the control board

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Switch the oven off with the selector and let it cool. 2. Look inside for anything touching the probe at the back wall, but do not bend or pull it. 3. Switch the range off at the breaker for a minute, then restore power. 4. If 30 F0 remains, leave the oven unused and call us.

! Why to stop there

The probe cable runs behind the oven liner and cannot be inspected without disassembly.
Replacing a probe without testing the cable can leave the same code in place.
We test probe, cable and board connection before quoting, with the price in writing first.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

30 F030 F0 questions

What is probe ST1?

ST1 is the temperature probe that tells the control how hot the oven cavity is. A short on that probe or its cable makes the readings unusable, so the oven will not heat.

Can I still bake in the meantime?

No. Without a valid temperature reading the control will not run the oven, and working around it is unsafe. Cooktop burners are separate and normally keep working.

How is 30 F0 different from 30 F1?

30 F0 is a short circuit on the probe or cable. 30 F1 is an open circuit or a poorly fitted connector. We test each differently to find the break or short.
