Fisher & Paykel Legacy Range Code 30 F1: Temperature Probe ST1 Open Circuit

What 30 F1 means

On older freestanding Fisher & Paykel OR24, OR36 and OR48 ranges such as the OR36LDBGX1, 30 F1 reports that temperature probe ST1 is an open circuit, with a damaged cable or a poorly fitted connector. The control cannot read the oven temperature. The display shows 30 F1 and heating stops, often after a 30-minute countdown on the selector. The cavity stays cold whenever this message is on the display.

Common causes of 30 F1

Probe ST1 or its cable broken open
Loose connector at the probe or at the control board
Cable worn through by heat or movement

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Turn the selector to OFF and wait out the 30-minute countdown before touching anything. 2. Let the oven cool completely. 3. Do not pull the probe or the wires at the back wall. 4. Restore power at the breaker after a minute and see if the display clears. If 30 F1 comes back, call us.

! Why to stop there

A loose connector is hard to tell from a broken cable without testing the circuit.
Wiggling parts behind the liner can turn a loose plug into a broken wire.
We trace the probe circuit and quote the real cause in writing before work begins.

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 F130 F1 questions

Why does the display count down 30 minutes?

After 30 F1 appears the selector must be turned OFF and the 30-minute countdown finished before the circuit can be checked. Cutting power early does not help.

Could a loose plug be all it is?

Yes, a poorly fitted connector is one of the listed causes. It still takes taking the oven apart to reach it, so we check the connection first and replace parts only if needed.

Is the oven safe to keep using?

Please leave it off. The control cannot read the temperature, and the repair is usually small. We give a written price first and a 30-day workmanship warranty after.
