Oven is very slow to come up to selected temperature in all modes

Sounds like a control board problem. Check "you tube" for solutions and "how to replace" video.

The circuit diagram for the standard control model shows the blower has a two-speed motor, connected directly to the power line in "Cool" mode, or connected to the temperature control in "Cook" mode. When the blower slows down during cooking, switch it temporarily to "Cool" mode. If it goes to normal speed, the problem is with the mode switch contacts or the wiring terminals between the fan mode switch and the temperature control board, or the control board itself.

If the speed does not change, check the wiring terminals at the speed switch common terminal (I assume your problem occurs in both low and high speeds). If you find tarnished, loose, or burned terminals, clean, repair or replace as needed. (In extreme cases, a loose terminal will cause the wire to overheat, damaging the insulation, oxidizing the terminal and causing a high-resistance condition that will reduce the voltage available to the motor.) If the connections are all good, the motor bearings are probably getting sticky at high temperatures. Let the oven get hot enough for the blower to slow down, then shut it off and check the blower bearings while wearing oven mitts.

The F-2 error code Indicates that oven is over temperature in one of the following modes within either a cooking or clean mode of operation.
· Control senses oven temperature above 650 degrees F with the door circuit in the unlock mode.
· Control senses oven temperature above 935 degrees F with the door in the locked mode.
· Stalled cooling fan or airflow problem. · Look for welded relay contacts. (Heating elements on in off mode).
· Look for open thermal switch in lock motor circuit. Switch is normally closed and will open if area overheats due to fan not operating. Look for cause - fan thermal switch not closing, fan stalled, etc.
· Look for high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit due to high contact resistance (poor terminal crimp, deformed terminals, loose connection) or intermittent solder joint on control or intermittent oven temperature sensor.
· Look for electrical noise interference in the oven temperature sensor circuit (Ham radio, cordless phone, etc.).

This sounds as if the electronic clock timer is in automatic mode. It must be in manual mode for the oven to work. Turn the oven on and play around with the timer controls/buttons. When the oven indicator light comes on the clock is in manual mode.

Due to the nature of the self-cleaning cycle heating the oven to above normal temperatures what likely happened is that the temperature sensor went bad. The sensor is a small rod about 6 inches long and 1/4 inches wide that sits in the back of the oven. You can remove it from the back side of the oven which will need to be pulled from the wall. Replacing it should solve the problem.

Let me know how this works out for you.

problem
8. door will not open.
9. oven will not heat after Self cleaning.
possible Cause
oven is in Self-clean mode.
time of day is not set due to power failure.
oven settings are not correct.
remedy
if oven is hot, door latch will release
automatically when oven temperature
falls below 390˚F at end of cycle.
if Self-clean was just selected
and the oven is still cool, press
“caNceL•SecuRe” to turn off Selfclean.
the door will open in about 30
seconds.
Press “cLock” touch pad, then press
“tiMe•teMP” pad to set correct time of
day.
follow mode selection and clock settings
as specified in the oveN oPeRatioN
section.
oven will turn on automatically
at preset time. if desired, press
“caNceL•SecuRe” touch pad to cancel
out of delay timed mode.
Troubleshooting Guide (Continued)
Important:
If a Failure Code is displayed, the oven will beep continuously until the user presses the “CanCel•seCure” button. the oven will not heat
after a failure. Call a qualified appliance technician to repair the oven.
Oven Failure Codes
Clock Display Cause
f0. touch pad is stuck in depressed position.
f1. Relay circuit failure.
f . oven temperature exceeded the clean runaway temperature (Self-clean mode
only) or the cooking runaway temperature (cooking modes only).
f3. Short circuit in the oven temperature sensor.
f4. open circuit in the oven temperature sensor.
f6. failure in the eePRoM check comparison. (only time of day and timer will
operate.)
f7 failure of the Self-clean automatic door latch circuit.
f8. failure of the door latch motor. occurs when the motor runs for two minutes
without the door locking in Self-clean mode.
