Admiral Oven meat thermometer not working
If your Admiral oven meat thermometer is not working, the meat probe is the most likely cause. The probe's resistance should change as its temperature changes, so test it with a multimeter. If it shows an open circuit, replace the probe. A faulty probe jack, also called the receptacle, is another possibility, especially if it is corroded, damaged, dirty, or not making firm contact with the probe. If both the probe and receptacle test good, the Admiral oven control board may not be reading the temperature signal. Some Admiral ovens also require the door to be fully closed before the oven probe works. A defective door switch can prevent the control board from recognizing that condition, so test the switch for continuity when actuated and replace it if it fails. These are the main causes of an oven probe not working, meat thermometer not working, or oven thermometer showing an error. Enter your Admiral range, stove, or oven model number to find the exact replacement meat probe, receptacle, door switch, or oven control board for your appliance.
01 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Meat Probe
The meat probe resistance changes with the temperature of the probe. If the probe shows an open circuit when tested with a multimeter, the probe is bad and will need to be replaced.

Highly Likely
02 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Control Board
When the probe is plugged into the jack, the control board monitors the food temperature from the probe. If the temperature probe and jack are good but the control board is not responding, the control board is likely bad.
Common
03 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Door Switch
Some oven meat thermometers will not function properly unless the oven door is closed which activates a door switch to alert the control board that the door is closed. If the door switch is defective, the oven meat thermometer may not work. To determine if the switch is defective, use a multimeter to test it for electrical continuity when actuated. If the door switch does test appropriately for continuity, replace it.
Uncommon But Possible
04 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Receptacle
The meat probe jack or receptacle needs to be clean and making good contact with the meat probe. If the receptacle appears corroded or damaged, the component should be replaced.
Uncommon But Possible
05 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board
When the probe is plugged into the jack, the oven control board monitors the food temperature from the probe. If the temperature probe and jack are good but the control board is not responding, the control board is likely bad.
