Error codeF2
ApplianceRange
What F2 is flagging
The manual attaches F2 to three possible trouble spots: the oven temperature sensor, the control, and the wiring that connects them. The listing covers both ranges and wall ovens.
Power cycle, step by step
Switch the circuit breaker off, or pull the plug if the oven has one.
Leave the oven without power for a full minute.
Restore power.
Stay near the display for one more minute and see whether F2 shows up again.
Verify that the oven works.
If F2 returns after this, book a technician visit.
Compare with these codes
F2E0 has a different cause area: the keypad and control.
F2E3 also concerns the keypad side rather than the sensor.
F3-1 is the F3 variant that names the oven sensor too.
