To address this, disconnect power for 30 seconds, then reconnect. Wait for at least a minute after restoring power. If the error code shows up again, you need to replace the control board (clock).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F1-E5<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The calibration has shifted. To correct this, disconnect power for 30 seconds, then reconnect. Wait for at least a minute after restoring power. If the error code reappears, you should replace the control board (clock).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>All F3-E Codes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: These codes indicate a problem with the oven temperature sensor (RTD) or warming drawer. To fix this, you need to replace the oven temperature sensor (RTD).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F4-E1<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This error code points to a defect in the meat probe. Check the probe, receptacle, and probe circuit for any issues like pinched wires, condensation, or contamination. If everything looks okay, replace the probe.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>All F5-E Codes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: These codes indicate a door switch defect. If the door is latched, disconnect power and inspect the wires and connections. Replace any damaged parts. If there are no visible issues, reconnect power and hold down any key until the F5 error clears. Once the F2 code appears, select &#8216;cancel&#8217; and wait for one minute to see if any errors reappear. If the door is not latched, disconnect power and check the wires and connections. Replace any damaged parts. Measure the door switch (latch open = switch open) and latch switch (unlatch = switch open) and replace either if they are defective. After making corrections, reconnect power and test the unit. Press and hold any key to clear the error code, and the F2 code should appear. Select &#8216;cancel&#8217; and wait for one minute to check for any remaining errors. If the error persists, disconnect power and replace the control.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F6-E1<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This error indicates that the return line is not connected. To resolve this, you need to replace the control board (clock).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F7-E1<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: This error occurs when the common wire to the latch switch and door switch is shorted. Check all connections at the control board, latch switch, and door switch. If the connections are fine, then check the individual switches as described for the F5 error code. Note that double ovens will have two of each switch and one common wire.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>2-digit Failure Codes<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The control board has failed.

Check for welded contacts on the bake and broil relays. If you find any, replace the control board (clock). For SELF CLEAN models, check the operation of the door lock. Inspect the sensor, sensor harness, and the connection between the sensor and oven control. Also, look for any causes of high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit. Keep in mind that the oven control board (clock) measures the resistance of the sensor circuit, not the actual oven temperature.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>F3<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The oven temperature sensor (RTD) is open.
