Fisher & Paykel OB24SDPX1 Code E017: Oven Overheating With Open Probe

What E017 means

On the Fisher & Paykel OB24SDPX1 built-in 24-inch oven, E017 is a combined code. It means the oven cavity is overheating and the temperature probe reads as an open circuit at the same time. The number is the sum of two conditions, 16 for overheating and 1 for the open probe. The display shows E017 and heating stops. The oven will not carry on cooking while this code is active.

Common causes of E017

A cavity temperature probe with an open circuit
A broken probe lead or loose connector
A heating element that stayed on while the probe could not report
A control that has cut power after the overheat

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Switch the oven off and let it cool fully before touching anything. 2. Keep the door closed and do not use the oven. 3. Turn the breaker off for a minute and back on only to see whether the code clears. 4. Do not try to run another cycle if E017 returns. 5. Call us so we can test the probe and the heating circuit.

! Why to stop there

Overheating together with a lost temperature reading is a serious combination.
The open probe may be the reason the oven overheated, and only testing proves it.
We check the probe, the wiring and the control together.

E017E017 questions

Why does E017 combine two problems?

This oven adds up error values. 16 stands for overheating and 1 for the open probe, so 17 tells the technician both happened together. That saves time when we diagnose it.

Did the oven really overheat?

It reached an overheat condition, and with the probe open the control may not have been able to hold temperature. That is why we advise leaving the oven off until it is tested.

Is it safe to cook elsewhere in the kitchen?

Yes, the problem is limited to this oven. Keep it switched off at the breaker if you want certainty, and use a cooktop or another appliance until we repair it.
