KitchenAid Wall Oven F6E1, F6E2, F6E3 Codes: Appliance Manager and Converter
F6E1, F6E2 and F6E3 name the appliance manager control, converter control or wiring. Reset first, then call if needed.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so F6E1 / F6E2 / F6E3 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

About the boards
Only a name is given for the appliance manager. The other board is the converter control; in everyday usage the term suggests turning one form of power into another, but KitchenAid offers no definition, so take that as background.
A frank line for F6E1 and F6E3 says a variety of different reasons may be behind them. F6E2 does not have it. Nothing in the entries shortens the list of suspects.
What to do first
Take power off at the oven’s breaker for a minute, then put it back. Keep watching the oven for a minute in case the code comes back, and use it as usual to check it works.
Why the reset may not end it
Because the maker admits to many possible reasons, a code that returns must be traced by proper testing. Schedule a visit then.
