My oven is not working. Everytime I try to turn it on a beeping sound occurs and the Code F31 flashes across the screen.
I looked uo the error codes and it stated that F3 is a shorted temprature sensor but what about F31?
How do I go about getting this repaired?
Is it simple enough for me to do?
Here are your parts

Temp sensor is Item 37 in the "Body" section, Item F37 near the bottom of the parts listing.
Here is a good link

Check out # 7 and #8
Looks like you should be able to just undo the screw and pull it into the oven, then undo the connector. Put a clip or something on the wires so they do not fall back behind the oven. Then check the temperature probe/sensor with a meter.

No idea what the 1 is. Perhaps someone else who does know will jump in. Getting tech info on Tappan is difficult.

See above

I do not know you so I cannot say. It is not difficult to at the minimum check the probe. If the probe is OK then it could be a shorted wire or the control board.
