Steps to fix Amana stove error code F1 E0

Please follow the steps below to remove the F1 E0 error code. Always remember to prioritize safety when dealing with electrical appliances. If you’re unsure or uncomfortable with any of the steps outlined below, please seek help from a qualified technician.

Step 1 – Reset the stove

Start by unplugging the stove or turning off the circuit breaker that powers it. Leave it off for around 2-5 minutes to allow the electronics to reset. Then, plug it back in or flip the circuit breaker on and see if the error code clears. If the code is still showing, proceed to the next step.

Step 2 – Check the wiring

The next step is to check the writing of the control board. You need to ensure all the connections on the board and the wiring harnesses are secure. If there are any loose connections or damaged wiring, they will need to be repaired or replaced. If the wiring is fine or replacing it doesn’t remove the error code, proceed to the next step.

Step 3 – Check the oven sensor

The oven sensor monitors the oven temperature and communicates with the control board. The F1 E0 error code may be activated if the sensor is faulty. To check the oven sensor, locate and inspect it for noticeable damage or corrosion. If damaged, it must be replaced. If the oven sensor looks fine, it can be tested with a multimeter for continuity, and if it is defective, it can be replaced. If the sensor looks undamaged and passes a continuity test, you can proceed to the next step. If the error code is still showing after replacing the oven sensor, you will also need to proceed to the next step.

Step 4 – Replace the control board

If the Amana stove error code F1 E0 code is still showing, the control board is likely malfunctioning and will need to be replaced. However, if your stove is under warranty, it might be best to contact a professional technician or the manufacturer for assistance before taking this step.
