Error codeF1E7

Why the range shows F1E7
Whirlpool connects F1E7 with the main appliance control board or the wiring around it. The wording is a suspicion and not a settled diagnosis, so watch how the oven behaves after a reset.
The manual lists it for ranges and for wall ovens alike.
At a glance
Code: F1E7
Appliance: Whirlpool range or wall oven
Manual wording: the main appliance control board or the wiring around it
Owner remedy: a one-minute power cycle, then a one-minute watch
Quick reset for F1E7
Flip the house breaker off, or unplug the plug, and leave the range without power for one minute.
Put power back on.
Stay near the oven for the next minute and check whether F1E7 returns.
Finally, make sure the oven runs normally.
When F1E7 reappears after the reset, the next step is a technician visit.

Our Whirlpool range repair service covers San Francisco and nearby Bay Area homes. When you phone (415) 687-4102, give the code, the model number and the steps you have already tried.
Model compatibility: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F1E7 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
Whirlpool links F1E7 to a possible problem with the main appliance control board or the wiring around it.
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.
