Error code F004
Appliance Range
Quick answer

F004 on Kenmore 790 and Elite slide-in ranges means touch panel failure. What the manual says to try and when to call.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F004 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.

F004 on a Kenmore range: touch panel failure. This is documented for 790-series freestanding ranges and for Elite electric slide-in models 790.4131, 790.4255 and 790.5256.

The manual’s advice is short. Disconnect electrical power, wait 30 seconds and restore power. If the display shows F004 again, disconnect power and fit a replacement touch panel. A technician should do the replacement.

Codes that go together

One entry in the manual lists F002 (touch panel failure), F005 (touch panel failure) and F001 (touch panel failure) alongside F004. A different fault is F003 (user interface control board failure).
