Quick answer
Kenmore 665 wall oven code F5/E0: door open but latch locked, with the oven light test and lock assembly checks.
Model compatibility
Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F5/E0 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
Door is open but latch is locked (door switch and latch switch disagree).
F5/E0 means the switches disagree
On a Kenmore 665 model wall oven, F5/E0 says the door is open but the latch is locked: the door switch reports an open door while the latch switch reports a locked one.
Check the oven light
The manual tests the door switch with the oven light. Open and close the door and watch whether the light switches on and off. A defective door switch is replaced.
Then the door lock assembly
Disconnect power or unplug the oven, reconnect any loose wires on the door lock assembly wire harness, and replace the harness if damaged. Look the door lock assembly over for visible damage; a broken one is replaced.
