These error code explanations help troubleshoot a problem for a Kenmore slide-in electric range with a model number that starts with 664.
When your range isn't heating, you may see an error code in the display. The error code will likely point you in the direction of the range failure. Find the error code in the chart below and repair the failure.
Code | Meaning | Possible Cause | Possible Parts |
F1E0, F1E1 or F1E2 | Oven control board failure | Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power for 30 seconds, and then restore power to range. If the code reappears after restoring power, disconnect power and replace the oven control board. (The oven control board includes the key panel on models beginning with 664.9511.) | Oven control board |
F2E0 | Keypad disconnected | Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power. Reconnect the ribbon wire between the key panel and the oven control board if disconnected. If you find the ribbon wire plugged in securely, replace the key panel. If the problem continues, replace the oven control board. (The oven control board includes the key panel on models beginning with 664.9511.) | Key panel, oven control board |
F2E1 | Stuck key | Press down and around all keys on the keypad to free the stuck button. Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power for 30 seconds, and then restore power to range. If the code reappears after restoring power, disconnect power and replace the key panel. If the problem continues, replace the oven control board. (The oven control board includes the key panel on models beginning with 664.9511.) | Key panel, oven control board |
F3E0 | Oven temperature sensor failure | Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power. Measure the resistance of the oven temperature sensor. You should measure between 1,000 and 1,200 ohms at room temperature (77 degrees F). If resistance falls outside of that range, replace the oven temperature sensor | Oven temperature sensor |
F6E1 | Oven too hot | Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power. Measure the resistance of the oven temperature sensor. You should measure between 1,000 and 1,200 ohms at room temperature (77 degrees F). If resistance falls outside of that range, replace the oven temperature sensor. If resistance is within that range, replace the oven control board because a stuck relay on the control board caused the oven to overheat | Oven temperature sensor, oven control board |
F8E0 | Cooling fan speed too slow | Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power. Check the wire harness connections between the cooling fan and the oven control board. Reconnect any loose wires and repair any broken wires. If the wire harness connections are okay, replace the cooling fan. If the problem continues, replace the oven control board because the board isn't correctly detecting the fan speed | Cooling fan, oven control board |
F8E2 | Cooling fan speed too fast | The hall sensor (tachometer) on the cooling fan could be defective. Sometimes, a defective oven control board causes this failure because the board doesn't detect the hall sensor speed signal correctly. Unplug the range or shut off the house circuit breakers for the range to disconnect electrical power. Replace the cooling fan. If the problem continues, replace the oven control board | Cooling fan, oven control board |
F9E0 | Mis-wired power cord | Unplug the range and check the power cord wire connection on the terminal block. Connect the wires correctly to the terminal block as shown in the installation guide |
