Error codeF6E0
ApplianceMicrowave
What F6E0 signals
On over-the-range models, F6E0 means a requested function failed. The manual lists the Appliance Control Board and its wiring as the possible origin.
What to try
Kill the breaker for sixty seconds; pulling the plug does the same job. Bring power back, then keep the display in view for another minute to learn if F6E0 returns. The last check is a normal run of the microwave.
Service for your Whirlpool microwave in San Francisco
If F6E0 is still there after the reset, Whirlpool microwave repair can send a technician around San Francisco and the Bay Area. Call (415) 687-4102 with the code, your model number and what you have tried.
Model compatibility: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F6E0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F6E0 means the oven could not execute the function; the Appliance Control Board or its wiring may be at fault.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
