LG lists F17 as a convection fan error and F7 as the upper oven convection fan error. Convection cooking needs that fan, so the oven may cook unevenly or refuse the mode. LG stove display · also shown as F7 What to do when F17 shows on the stove ### Kind of code Oven heating The oven part of the stove was set to bake or broil and did not warm the way the controls expected, or took far too long to get there. On an electric stove a bake or broil element that has burned through is the everyday reason; on a gas stove the oven igniter and the valve it opens are looked at first. The wiring and the relay on the board are checked before the board itself is blamed. ### Usually leads to Stove oven heating repair The oven part of a stove that stays cold, heats slowly or bakes too hot or too cool, fixed at the bake and broil elements, the oven igniter, the gas valve or the temperature sensor. ### Shows up as Oven on My Stove Won't Heat Up The burners on top work, but the oven underneath stays cold, heats only a little, or never reaches the temperature you set. ### Make LG The Korean electronics maker whose freestanding and slide-in stoves often come with app controls. ### Source LG Help Library: range error codes list (Wayback, 23 Jun 2025) F17 is listed here: LG's Help Library code list (Wayback copy of 23 June 2025); the list names no models, so the rating label decides whether your stove can show it. ## Before you book, in this order.

Press CLEAR/OFF and try a regular Bake, which does not rely on the fan. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can I still bake on my LG with F17 showing? Plain Bake does not depend on the convection fan, so it may work. Convection and air fry modes should wait for a repair. ### My LG makes a scraping noise and then shows F7. What is that? Something may be rubbing on the fan blade, or the fan motor is failing. Stop using convection and book a visit. ### Is F17 on my LG a heating problem or a fan problem? It is the fan. The heat source may be fine, but the air is not being moved around the oven. --- **[Read on the site: LG stove shows F17 or F7 when using convection](https://stoverepair.center/error-codes/lg-f17/)** **[Book a visit with StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/schedule/)**
