Food Network Thermometer Replacement Probe. Whether you’re a cooking novice or a seasoned pro, having a reliable kitchen thermometer is essential. That’s why, when the probe on your Food Network thermometer starts to wear out, it’s important to know how to replace it. With just a few simple steps, you’ll have your thermometer working like new again in no time!
Step 1: Remove the Batteries and unscrew the Back Panel
Using your Phillips head screwdriver, remove the batteries from your thermometer. Once the batteries are removed, unscrew the back panel and set it aside. If the back panel is difficult to remove, try using your pliers to loosen it.
Step 2: Disconnect the Old Probe
Carefully disconnect the old probe from the circuit board. If you see any corrosion or buildup on either the old probe or the circuit board, use an alcohol wipe to clean it off before proceeding.
Step 3: Connect the New Probe
Connect the new probe to the circuit board, making sure that it is firmly in place. Once the new probe is connected, screw the back panel back onto the thermometer and insert fresh batteries.
