# How to Change a Wire Thermocouple on a GE Wall Oven
GE manufactures a wide range of wall oven models, each with a distinct set of features and style options. The thermocouple in each model resides in the back of the oven to monitor oven temperature. If the thermocouple is defective or damaged, the oven will not work properly. In some cases, it will not heat. Replace the wire thermocouple with a new one to restore your GE wall oven to proper working order.
