Error code F17
Appliance Range
Quick answer

F17 on a Kenmore range, in plain terms: which models, one reset to try, and the part that follows.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F17 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

F17 is an oven control board failure code on Kenmore glass touch and Elite slide-in gas or dual-fuel ranges.

One reset, one possible part

  1. Take power off the range for 30 seconds (unplug it or disconnect electrical power).
  2. Put power back on.
  3. If F17 comes back, a technician replaces the electronic oven control board.

Where F17 is documented

  • Glass touch panel electric freestanding ranges: electronic oven control board failure.
  • Elite slide-in gas or dual-fuel ranges 790.4276, 790.4275, 790.4261, 790.4260, 790.3264 and 790.3263: oven control board failure.

Worth comparing

Other control board codes are F12 and F13, while F19 concerns a lower oven that is not heating.
