Quick answer
F5 00 on a Kenmore freestanding electric range with a glass touch panel: what it means and how the chart traces it.
Model compatibility
Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F5 00 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
F5 00 is a communication failure between the user interface control board and the electronic oven control board.
F5 00 appears on Kenmore freestanding electric ranges with a glass touch panel control. It reports that the user interface control board and the electronic oven control board are no longer communicating.
How the chart traces it
The range is unplugged first. Next, the wire harness connections among the user interface control board, the power relay control board and the electronic oven control board are checked. When those connections are sound, the wire harness running between the user interface control board and the electronic oven control board is replaced. If the code persists after that, the user interface control board is replaced.
Everything past unplugging is hands-on technician work inside the range, so an owner is best served by noting the code and calling.
