Error code F003
Appliance Range
Quick answer

Kenmore range F003 is a user interface control board failure. See the steps for 790 freestanding and Elite slide-in models.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F003 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

User interface control board failure.

The code F003 stands for a user interface control board failure. Two kinds of Kenmore range show it: freestanding models numbered 790 and Elite electric slide-ins 790.4131, 790.4255 and 790.5256.

790 freestanding ranges

The manual says to disconnect electrical power and replace the user interface board. The board can come in more than one version, so the latest revision should be used.

Elite slide-in ranges

Disconnect power, wait 30 seconds and restore it. If F003 returns, disconnect power again and replace the oven user interface control board. It sits directly behind the touch control panel and includes the clock display.
