Quick answer

A step-by-step view of F5 00 on Kenmore glass touch electric ranges.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F5 00 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

F5 00 is a communication failure between two control boards.

What F5 00 tells you

Two boards in a Kenmore freestanding glass touch electric range have lost contact: the user interface control board and the electronic oven control board.

Troubleshooting order

  1. Unplug the range.
  2. Inspect the harness connections linking the user interface board, the power relay control board and the electronic oven control board.
  3. If those are fine, replace the harness between the user interface board and the oven control board.
  4. If F5 00 keeps coming back, replace the user interface control board.

Steps 2 to 4 are what a technician checks; an owner should stop at step 1.
