Error code F025
Appliance Range
Quick answer

Communication between the user interface board and the relay board cannot be initiated. Here is what the owner's manual says to check on a Kenmore range.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F025 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

Communication between the user interface board and the relay board cannot be initiated.

F025 tells you that a Kenmore range could not start communication between the user interface board and the relay board. The manual covers it for Kenmore 790 freestanding ranges and, separately, Elite slide-in electric ranges numbered 790.4131, 790.4255 and 790.5256.

What the manual lists

  1. Disconnect power for 30 seconds, then restore it.
  2. Back again? Disconnect electrical power and examine the harness between the user interface control board and the relay control board. Reconnect loose wires, or replace a damaged harness.
  3. If either board was replaced recently, the wrong part may have gone in. Compare the part number against your range model number and fit the right one.
  4. No recent part change and a good harness: replace the relay control board.
  5. Code still present: replace the user interface control board.

The manual groups F025 with F027 under one entry.

Nearby codes

  • F027 shares this entry in the manual.
  • F022 is a communication failure between the same two boards.
  • F019 is the interface board being unable to configure the relay control board.
