Error code F005
Appliance Range
Quick answer

Kenmore range F005 is a touch panel failure on 790 and Elite slide-in models. Reset power, then call if it returns.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F005 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

Touch panel failure.

Seeing F005 on a Kenmore range means the touch panel has failed. The manual covers freestanding ranges whose model numbers begin with 790 and Elite electric slide-in ranges 790.4131, 790.4255 and 790.5256.

Manual steps

  • Disconnect electrical power from the range and leave it off for 30 seconds.
  • Restore power and watch the display.
  • If F005 shows up again, disconnect power and replace the touch panel; the slide-in calls it the touch control panel. Leave this to a technician.

Other codes in the same group

F001 (same advice), F002 (same advice) and F004 (same advice) share this entry. For a board problem rather than a panel problem, read about F003 (user interface control board failure).
