# Oven error code C-23

### What C-23 means on this make

This is the meat probe rather than the cavity sensor — the accessory probe that plugs into the socket inside the oven — and that distinction saves people a great deal of money. An oven that reports this while cooking perfectly well is very often telling you that the probe or its socket has failed, not the appliance. Unplugging the probe and running the oven without it is a fair test that anybody can do.

### Where this appears, and which table it belongs to

On the appliance’s own display. Photograph it before you cut the power: a display that has been cleared has taken the evidence with it, and there is no way to ask the machine for it again. Then check the model, because this make changed hands in 2016 and the two generations share no code string. The same characters mean different things on a Classic ERC oven, an ER-series range and a Modernist induction cooktop, and a meaning read off the wrong table is worse than no meaning at all.

### Which machines this one applies to

Modernist wall ovens and Pro ranges. The same number on a different appliance of this make is a different page and often a different repair, which is why this archive is organized by appliance rather than by number. This maker documents codes on 5 of the appliance types this site publishes — coffee machine, cooktop, dishwasher, oven and range — and publishes none at all for freezer, microwave, range hood, refrigerator and wine cooler. Those appliances have symptom pages here and no code pages, which is the honest answer rather than borrowing a table from the machine next door.

### What to do about it

- Unplug the temperature probe and run the oven without it — if the code goes, the probe is the problem.
- Check the socket inside the cavity for damage or debris.
- A replacement probe is an accessory, not a service part, and it is inexpensive.
- Only if the code persists with no probe fitted does the appliance itself need attention.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [oven temperature sensor service](/services/oven-temperature-sensor-service/), and that page carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes, reminders and settings rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 363-6067](tel:+13053636067) and describe what the panel is doing before booking anything.
