Temperature probe short circuit

Inspect the meat-probe jack inside the cavity for food debris or moisture and clean it
Examine the probe cable for cuts, kinks or melted insulation
Measure the probe resistance — a short reads near zero ohms
Disconnect the probe and see whether E1 clears, which isolates the probe from the jack and wiring
Replace the probe or its receptacle if the short is confirmed
Pro Diagnostic Tip
E1 is a shorted temperature-probe circuit — a short reads near zero ohms. Clear food and moisture from the probe jack first; if disconnecting the probe clears E1, the probe or its cable is at fault, not the control board.
