Hardwick Oven meat thermometer not working
Is your Hardwick oven probe not working? The meat thermometer or oven thermometer may show no reading, an incorrect temperature, or a probe error. Start with the meat probe, the most likely cause. Its resistance changes as the probe heats, and an open circuit measured with a multimeter indicates a failed probe that needs replacement. If the probe tests good, the range control board may not be receiving or processing the signal. A defective oven control board can also prevent the oven from detecting the probe, although this is less common. Next, check the door switch. Some Hardwick ovens require the door to be closed before the oven probe operates, and a switch that lacks continuity when activated can cause the meat thermometer not working problem. Finally, inspect the probe receptacle, or jack, for corrosion, damage, dirt, or poor contact. Replace the receptacle if it cannot make a solid connection with the probe. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement meat probe, control board, door switch, or receptacle for your Hardwick range, stove, or oven.
01 - Hardwick 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 - Hardwick 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 - Hardwick 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 - Hardwick 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 - Hardwick 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.
Uncommon But Possible
