Frigidaire FCRC3012ABC electric range Parts

Your Frigidaire electric range model number is printed on the serial plate; on model FCRC3012ABC, it’s commonly located behind the lower oven drawer or storage drawer. Once you find it, write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown.

Where to look for the model number

Check these common serial plate locations on Frigidaire ranges:

• Behind the storage drawer or lower oven drawer (pull the drawer fully out)
• On the oven frame around the door opening (check the front edge)
• On a side frame inside the drawer opening
• On the back panel (less common, but worth a quick look)

A flashlight helps; the label is often low and partially shaded.

How to read it correctly

Model numbers are a mix of letters and numbers, so accuracy matters when ordering parts like an oven temperature sensor or bake element.

• Copy the model number exactly (example: FCRC3012ABC)
• Watch for look-alikes: 0 (zero) vs O (letter O), 1 vs I
• Record the serial number too; it helps with production variations
• Take a clear photo of the label for reference

What you’ll use the model number for

Task	Why the model number matters
Ordering replacement parts	Ensures the part fits your exact range configuration
Finding diagrams and specs	Matches the correct wiring, elements, and controls
Troubleshooting	Points you to the right procedures and error code info

For model-specific details and label location notes, use the FCRC3012ABC owner’s manual.

Why it matters

Frigidaire ranges can look similar across model families, but parts like surface element control switches, control overlays, and oven sensors can differ. Using the exact model number prevents wrong-part returns and speeds up repair.

On the Frigidaire FCRC3012ABC electric range, an F12 code points to a keypad or user interface configuration problem (the control is seeing key signals that do not match what it expects). We clear it by resetting power; if it returns, the control assembly typically needs service.

How to clear F12 safely

• Press OFF to clear the code.
• Turn off power to the range at the breaker.
• Wait 5 minutes.
• Restore power.
• Set the clock, then try Bake or Broil again.

These steps match the general “F or E code” recovery process in the FCRC3012ABC owner’s manual.

What usually causes F12

F12 is commonly triggered by one of these issues:

• Stuck or shorted key on the touch panel
• Moisture, grease, or cleaner residue on the control area
• Loose or oxidized ribbon cable/connector between the touch panel and control
• Failed user interface/control board electronics

What to do next if F12 comes back

If the code returns right after the reset, focus on the control area:

What you observe	Most likely issue	Best next step
F12 returns immediately on power-up	UI/control mismatch or failed control	Schedule service; plan for control repair/replacement
F12 appears after cleaning or heavy cooking steam	Moisture or residue affecting keys	Let the panel dry fully; wipe with a barely damp cloth, then retry
Random beeping or keys “press themselves”	Stuck key or failing touch panel	Stop using the oven until repaired

Why it matters

When the control thinks keys are being pressed incorrectly, it can interrupt baking or broiling and may cause unexpected beeping. Resetting power is the fastest way to restore normal operation and confirm whether the issue is temporary or a control failure.

Yes. For your Frigidaire electric range model FCRC3012ABC, looking up parts by the full model number is the most reliable way to match the correct replacement part (like a bake element, surface switch, or oven temperature sensor) to your exact configuration.

Where to find the model number on the range

Frigidaire places the serial plate in a consistent spot on many ranges. For FCRC3012ABC, check these common locations:

• Open the lower oven drawer or storage drawer and look for the serial plate label
• Check the drawer jamb area and nearby frame surfaces
• Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown
• Use the model number when ordering parts and when referencing diagrams

For model-specific identification tips, use the FCRC3012ABC owner’s manual.

How model-number lookup helps you get the right part

Model-number search narrows parts to what fits your range’s wiring, control style, and heating system.

Common examples for this model page

What you’re replacing	What the model lookup helps confirm	Example part on this model page
Oven won’t bake	Correct bake element style and terminals	Frigidaire range bake element 316075103
Burner won’t heat	Correct surface element control switch type	Frigidaire Range Surface Element Control Switch 316436001
Oven temp is off	Correct sensor connector and resistance range	Frigidaire Range Oven Temperature Sensor 316490000

Quick checklist before you order

• Match the model number exactly: FCRC3012ABC (letters and numbers matter)
• Compare the part name and part ID to what you’re replacing
• If your symptom is heat-related, confirm whether it’s bake, broil, or surface heating
• If the range shows an error code, look it up before buying parts

Why it matters

Frigidaire ranges can look similar across model families, but internal parts (control switches, sensors, elements, and harness connections) can differ. Using the exact model number reduces returns and helps you fix the problem on the first repair.

On the Frigidaire FCRC3012ABC electric range, the most common reasons the oven stops working are a power interruption, the clock not being set (the oven will not operate until time-of-day is set), or a control fault showing an F or E code. Start with the reset steps in the FCRC3012ABC owner's manual.

Quick checks we recommend first

• Confirm the range has power (check the breaker, then verify the cooktop elements work).
• Set the clock; this model requires time-of-day to be set before the oven will run.
• If the control is beeping and shows an F or E code, press OFF to clear it.
• Turn power off at the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power and reset the clock.
• Try Bake and Broil again after the reset.

Likely failed parts if power and settings are OK

If the oven still will not heat after the reset, these parts are common causes on electric ranges:

Symptom	Most likely cause	Part to consider (if applicable)
No bake heat, broil may still work	Burned-out bake element	Frigidaire range bake element 316075103
Oven heats poorly or temperature is erratic	Bad temperature sensor	Frigidaire range oven temperature sensor 316490000
No broil heat	Failed broil element	Frigidaire range broil element 316203200
Random shutdowns, dead display, repeated error codes	Control problem or wiring issue	(Often involves the control board and harness)

Why it matters

A “dead” oven is often a control or setup issue (clock not set, error code latched, power glitch). Doing the clock and 5-minute power reset first prevents unnecessary parts replacement and gets you back to baking faster.

Safety note before troubleshooting

We recommend shutting off power at the breaker before inspecting or replacing any internal part, and following the service and safety guidance in the FCRC3012ABC installation guide.
