Error code F2/E5 Cancel key defective
Appliance Range
Quick answer

F2/E5 on a Kenmore 665 model range points to a defective Cancel key. The manual shares one entry with F2/E6.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F2/E5 Cancel key defective 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

Cancel key is defective.

What F2/E5 tells you

The display is pointing at the Cancel key, which the manual calls defective. It applies to the Kenmore 665 model range, and F2/E6 is covered by the same entry.

If the code keeps coming back

  • Unplug the range, then reseat the keypad harness if you find it loose.
  • Restore power and press Cancel.
  • A code that returns within 60 seconds calls for a replacement keypad.
  • If it still persists, the electronic oven control is the next replacement in the manual.

The replacements belong to a technician.

Also worth a look:

  • F2/E6: shows the same Cancel key problem
  • F2/E0: keypad harness disconnected
  • F2E0: keypad disconnected
