Electrolux stove display · also shown as F41 What to do when F40 shows on the stove ### Kind of code Stovetop elements A burner on an electric or induction stovetop did not heat the way the knob or key asked, heated with nothing set, or ran hotter than the setting. The pan, a lock left on and the switch behind the knob are checked before the element under the glass, its limiter or an induction board is changed. If a burner keeps heating after it has been switched off, turn the stove's breaker off before anything else. ### Usually leads to Glass stovetop repair Smooth glass stovetops on electric and induction stoves with a cold circle, a cracked or chipped top, or a hot-surface light that stays on, repaired under the glass or with a new top. ### Shows up as Stovetop Not Heating The burners on an electric, glass or induction stovetop stay cold or warm up only a little, sometimes all of them and sometimes two on one side, while the oven below may still work. ### Make Electrolux A Swedish appliance group whose stoves in American kitchens often have their controls along the front edge. ### Source Electrolux: error code F40/F41 Where F40 is documented: Electrolux's owner support code guide, written for its earlier electric models (the articles say Electric Ranges); the current ECF gas, dual fuel and induction stoves show Err with a number instead. ## Before you book, in this order.

Turn all the element knobs off. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### How do I unlock the top on my Electrolux? If you set the lock, press and hold OFF for 6 seconds. If F40 or F41 shows, reset the power instead. ### Why does my Electrolux lock out one element but not the oven? F40 and F41 concern the top. The oven runs on separate parts and can keep working. ### Is F41 on my Electrolux a safety issue? The lockout itself keeps the top off. If an element stays hot with its knob off, switch the breaker off and book a visit. --- **[Read on the site: Electrolux stove shows F40 or F41 | StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/error-codes/electrolux-f40/)** **[Book a visit with StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/schedule/)**
