What F-3

What to do when F-3 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 SKS's own guidance for F-3 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the breaker off and wait five minutes.
Wipe the control panel dry if anything was spilled on it.
Turn the power back on, and book a visit to have the keypad and control checked if F-3 returns.
Still there?
It usually turns into knob and switch replacement. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
F-3 is not an oven that fails to heat; that is F-9. It concerns the keypad, often after a spill or a key that sticks.
