What F50
actually means.

Probe Error F50 on a BlueStar dual-fuel oven means the control has a problem with the meat probe, the temperature probe that plugs into a socket on the left wall of the large oven. BlueStar lists it separately from the oven's own sensor.

What to do when F50 shows on the oven

Kind of codeTemperature sensor

The reading from the temperature probe fell outside what the control will trust, or climbed far higher than the setting. A loose connector or a probe that has drifted is ruled out before the control itself, and a reading that runs away means the breaker goes off first.

Usually leads toTemperature sensor and calibration

Baking that comes out burnt or pale at the usual setting, traced to the sensor, its wiring or an oven that simply needs calibrating.

Shows up asOven Error Code

The oven shows letters and numbers, beeps, and stops a cycle or refuses to start one.

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from BlueStar's own guidance for F50 on its ovens. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Unplug the meat probe and check the plug and socket for grease or damage.

02

Make sure the probe is not in the oven during Broil or Clean; BlueStar does not allow it there.

03

Cook without the probe for now and book a visit if F50 returns.

Still there?

It usually turns into temperature sensor and calibration. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

F50 is not the oven's temperature sensor. The oven can still read its own heat; only the meat probe is in question.

Questions
about F50.

Can I clear F50 myself?
Unplug the meat probe and check the plug and socket for grease or damage. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Can I use my BlueStar oven with F50 showing?
The code concerns the meat probe, so ordinary baking and roasting by time and temperature are not what it reports on. Leave the probe out until it is checked.
Why does my BlueStar show a probe message during Broil?
BlueStar does not allow the probe in Broil or Clean and asks you to remove it. That message is separate from F50, which points to the probe itself.

Back to your everyday

Still showing F50?

Book with the code exactly as shown, the full model number, and whether you can smell gas or burning — with a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
