Whirlpool Cooktop F47 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code F47
Appliance Cooktop

What F47 can mean

Whirlpool Product Help ties F47 to three possible areas on electric (radiant) cooktops:

  • the power control board of the cooktop;
  • the touchpad, listed as the User Interface;
  • the associated wiring.

Before you book a visit

  1. Switch off the breaker or breakers supplying the cooktop for one minute.
  2. Switch the supply on again.
  3. Keep your eyes on the display for sixty seconds to see if the code comes back.
  4. Verify that the cooktop operates normally.

When the code shows again after the reset, a technician takes over.

How F47 compares

  • F43: narrower, since it leaves the touchpad out.
  • F56: names only the touchpad and its wiring.
  • F40: lists the touchpad together with the board.
