What F001 / F002 / F003 / F004 / F005 / F015 (790-prefix, four-digit) means

The 790. Kenmore ranges use two code styles, and the four-digit style belongs to an Electrolux-built platform. F001, F002, F004, F005 and F015 report a touch panel failure, while F003 reports a user interface board failure. In everyday terms the control panel you press is not working properly. You may see the code, a dead or erratic touch panel, and an oven that will not accept settings.

Common causes of F001 / F002 / F003 / F004 / F005 / F015 (790-prefix, four-digit)

The touch panel on the front
The user interface board behind it
Ribbon or harness connections between them
A temporary glitch that a power reset clears

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Note which of the six codes is showing. 2. Cancel anything running and let the oven cool. 3. Switch the range off at the breaker for 30 seconds, then restore power. 4. Wipe the panel gently with a dry or barely damp cloth, with no spray near the edges. 5. If the code returns, leave the panel alone and call us.

! Why to stop there

A touch panel failure and a board failure can look alike from the front
We check the harness connections and then the panel and board
We confirm which part needs work before quoting in writing

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

F001 / F002 / F003 / F004 / F005 / F015 (790-prefix, four-digit)F001 / F002 / F003 / F004 / F005 / F015 (790-prefix, four-digit) questions

Why are there six codes for one problem?

On this four-digit 790 platform, five of them report a touch panel failure and F003 reports the interface board. They all lead to the same area, the control panel.

Will turning the power off fix it?

A 30-second power cut can clear a one-time error, so it is worth trying once. If the code returns, the touch panel or the interface board needs testing.

Which facts matter most for this code?

Tell us which of the six codes appears, and whether the panel responds to touch at all. That lets us plan the checks, and you get a written price before work.
