Always disconnect the power to the unit
before touching the internal parts of the
oven.
Upon replacement, immediately return the
old electronic oven control. Use the mailing
label that is supplied with each new control.
FAILURE/ERROR DISPLAY CODES

CODE
ERROR
CODE
MEANING OF FAILURE CODE RECOMM ENDED REPAIR PROCEDURE
F0
Default F code — No failure
Will only be displayed if user presses and holds “0” key for 5 seconds and there are no pre-
existing faults. Press CANCEL to clear display.
F1
All E
Codes
Electronic control malfunction Replace control.
F2
E0
Key held down too long, or key is shorted
1. Check keypad connector for firm connection.
2. Press CANCEL. If error code returns after 60 sec., replace keypad.
3. Replace control.
E1
Keypad keytail not connected
E5
Cancel key drive line open
F3
E0
Temperature sensor opened
1. Check sensor connection.
2. Measure sensor resistance (1080
at 21
°
C [70
°
F]; add 2
per degree).
If resistance is not valid, replace sensor.
3. If sensor resistance and connections are good, then the oven cavity temperature
must have exceeded a safe level.Check for welded-closed relays on the control.
E1
Temperature sensor shorted
E2
Oven temp too high
(over 301
°
C [575
°
F] in Cook mode)
E3
Oven temp too high
(over 510
°
C [950
°
F] in Clean mode)
F4
E1
Meat probe malfunction - shorted
1. Disconnect meat probe and measure probe resistance: (78k
at 15.6
°
C[60
°
F];
37k
at 32.2
°
C[90
°
F] ).If resistance is not valid, replace probe.
2. Insert probe and check for a firm connection between probe and jack (in oven cavity).
3. Check connection between jack and harness (in rear of oven).
F5
E0
Door is open, but latch is locked
(condition exists when door switch is closed
indicating an open door, and latch switch is
closed indicating a locked door)
1. Check the latch assembly:
- Check latch arm pivot joint, arm/solenoid connection, solenoid spring,
and spring washer.
2. Check the Latch Solenoid:
- Check for firm electrical connections.
- Disconnect the two wires from the solenoid and measure the resistance of
the solenoid.A small resistance (approx. 175
) is normal.
If the solenoid is open (
∞ Ω
) or shorted (0
) it should be replaced.
3. Check the Latch Switch: Disconnect it and use a continuity tester:
- Door latched = switch closed, continuity should read 0
.
- Door unlatched = switch open, continuity should read
∞ Ω
.
4. Check Door Open/Closed Switch. Disconnect it and use a continuity tester:
- Door open = switch closed, continuity should read 0
.
- Door closed = switch open, continuity should read
∞ Ω
.
5. Check power and element connections.
E1
Self clean latch will not lock
E5
Self clean temperature (288
°
C [550
°
F] ) not
reached within 45 minutes
E7
Self clean latch will not unlock

E0
Return line not connected
If switch pulse return line is not connected, electronic control will display F6 within 60 seconds
after power up.Replace control.
