Error codeFC RR
ApplianceCooktop
Right rear is the position named by FC RR. The hotplate, which covers the cooking surface, burner or element, may have a problem, or its wiring may. The code is documented for electric/radiant cooktops, and a second help entry covers electric and induction models.
Owner steps
At the circuit breaker, cut power to the cooktop and wait a minute.
Restore the power.
Leave the cooktop for a minute and note whether FC RR returns.
Confirm that it operates normally.
When FC RR comes back
In that case the next step is a technician, since the owner list stops at the reset.

If FC RR returns, dial (415) 687-4102 for Whirlpool cooktop service in San Francisco and the Bay Area. Have the code, the model number and what the reset did written down. Background is under Whirlpool cooktop repair.
Model compatibility: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so FC RR may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
