What FE
actually means.
Behind the top left door of an eR7 sits the touch panel you use to turn each plate and oven on, and that panel has a processor of its own. FE is the panel telling you that chip has frozen or is behaving wrongly, so your taps are no longer reaching the heat zones.

What to do when FE shows on the stoveKind of codeKnobs, keys and display
A key on the panel was held down too long, reported a press nobody made, or stopped answering; or a knob's switch told the stove it was on when it was off. Water, a spill or grease worked in behind a knob is ruled out first, then the switch, the key panel and the cable to the board. If a burner keeps heating while the keys or knobs do nothing, switch the stove off at the breaker.
Usually leads toKnob and switch replacement
Stove knobs that are cracked, loose or spin in place, and the switches behind them that leave a burner stuck on high or dead, replaced at the knob, the stem or the switch.
Shows up asStove Error Code
The stove shows letters and numbers, a flashing symbol or a short message, beeps, and the oven or a burner stops or will not start.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from AGA's own guidance for FE on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Write down FE and which plates or ovens were switched on when it appeared.
Leave the cast iron alone; it holds its heat for a long time even if the panel has stopped listening.
Book a visit: AGA's service manual says a restart may clear it, and the panel is checked or replaced if FE returns.
Still there?
It usually turns into knob and switch replacement. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
FE says nothing about a burned-out element or a cold oven. The plates and ovens may be heating perfectly well while the panel that controls them has simply stopped taking commands.

Still showing FE?
Book with the code written exactly as the stove shows it, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or hot wiring — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
