Error code F1
Appliance Wall Oven
Quick answer

F1 covers a defective electronic oven control on Kenmore 665 wall ovens and a sensor or control board fault on 790 models.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 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

F1 points to the electronic oven control, or on 790 models to the oven temperature sensor or control board.

F1 appears on two Kenmore wall oven families, and the meaning depends on the model number.

Kenmore 665 model wall ovens

F1 means a defective electronic oven control (EOC). The manual says to disconnect power or unplug the wall oven, and the fix is replacing the EOC, which is technician work.

Kenmore 790 models

This covers manual-cleaning wall ovens starting 790 and Kenmore and Kenmore Elite self-cleaning wall ovens starting 790. F1 means an oven temperature sensor failure or a failed electronic oven control board.

  1. Unplug the wall oven for 30 seconds, then plug it back in.
  2. If the code returns, a technician checks resistance through the oven temperature sensor circuit, about 1,080 ohms at room temperature.
  3. The sensor, the wire harness or the control board is replaced depending on the readings.
