Quick answer
Kenmore range F011 means a key has been pressed for 30 seconds or more. Clear it with Stop; if not, disconnect power and call.
Model compatibility
Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F011 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 thiscode means
Stuck key on the keypad / touch panel.
F011 on a Kenmore range means a key is stuck. The control has detected a key pressed for 30 seconds or more.
Do this first
Make sure nothing is pushing against the keypad.
Press the Stop key to clear the display.
If the code will not clear
Disconnect electrical power to the range. The manual then has the wire harness connections between the touch panel and the user interface control board checked, loose wires reconnected and a damaged harness replaced. If the wiring is fine, the touch panel is replaced; if the code continues, the user interface control board is next. A technician handles those steps.
Which models
Freestanding Kenmore ranges with model numbers starting 790 use the wording keypad, touch panel and user interface control board. On Kenmore Elite electric slide-in ranges (790.4131, 790.4255, 790.5256) the parts are the touch control panel and the oven user interface control board.
