Error code F002
Appliance Range
Quick answer

Kenmore range code F002 is a touch panel failure. Learn the 30-second power reset and what to do if the code comes back.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F002 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

Touch panel failure.

If a Kenmore range shows F002, treat it as a failed touch panel. The manual covers 790-series freestanding ranges with 3-digit F-codes and the Elite electric slide-in models 790.4131, 790.4255 and 790.5256.

Step by step

  1. Disconnect power to the range, wait half a minute (30 seconds), then restore it.
  2. A returning error means disconnecting power again.
  3. The manual then calls for a new touch panel. Book a technician for the swap.

Neighbouring entries

The manual groups F002 with F001, F004 and F005. See F001 (same panel fault) or F003 (user interface control board failure, a different part) for comparison.
