# Whirlpool stove showing FEE6

FEE6 tells you the control found a problem with the bake element in the main oven cavity, the heating part at the bottom of an electric oven, or with the wires that feed it.

## What FEE6 actually means.

FEE6 tells you the control found a problem with the bake element in the main oven cavity, the heating part at the bottom of an electric oven, or with the wires that feed it.

What to do when FEE6 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 Whirlpool

The Michigan-based appliance maker behind many of the gas and electric stoves in American homes and rentals.

01

Turn the oven off and let it cool.

02

Cut power at the breaker for one minute, then restore it and watch the display for one minute.

03

If FEE6 returns, book a visit; look for a blistered or split spot on the element to mention.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [stove oven heating repair](https://stoverepair.center/services/stove-oven-heating-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

FEE6 is not the broil element at the top. Whirlpool gives that one its own code, FEE7.

## Questions about FEE6.

### Can I clear FEE6 myself?

Turn the oven off and let it cool. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My Whirlpool oven only heats from the top and shows FEE6. Related?

Yes. With the bake element out, only the broil element may heat, which browns the top and leaves the bottom raw.

### Can I see the problem behind FEE6 on my Whirlpool?

Sometimes. A burned or bubbled spot on the element is common, but a wiring break can hide behind the back panel.

### Is FEE6 on a Whirlpool dangerous?

It is not a gas issue. Stop using the oven until the element or its wiring is checked.
