Quick answer
F03 on JennAir oven appliances often maps to oven sensor / control — check your docs.
Model compatibility: JennAir reuses codes across series and model years, so F03 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Typical reading on JennAir controls: F03 often relates to oven sensor or control input faults on older EOCs. Allow cool-down, reset once, and book sensor testing if it returns. Treat this as a plain-language orientation for homeowners. Final interpretation belongs to your model’s documentation and an on-site check by JennAir Appliance Repair when the fault returns.
