KitchenAid Wall Oven Codes F01 to F3E3: Sensor, Control, Wiring
A possible oven temperature sensor, control or wiring problem is how KitchenAid describes fourteen wall oven codes. A breaker reset is the listed step.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so F01 / F02 / F1 / F2 … may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
What this code means
Possible oven temperature sensor, control or wiring problem, shared by fourteen wall oven codes.
What these codes have in common
All fourteen are explained the same way in the KitchenAid wall oven help text: the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the wiring may be the problem. Look yours up here, then use the single routine below.
At a glance

| What you can check | Turn the oven breaker off for sixty seconds and restore it. Watch the display for a minute and then run the oven to confirm it operates. |
| When to call a technician | Should the code appear again, schedule a technician visit, since the display cannot tell the sensor, control and wiring apart. Give the complete code and say the reset was done. |

Questions
What does the sensor do? It reports the oven temperature to the control, and the control uses the reading to manage the heat.
Can the code tell me which of the three parts is at fault? No. The source does not separate F01 from 1D21 or any other pair, so no particular number is a clue. Purely numeric codes such as 1D11 and 3D22 read the same as the F-codes, and the source lists no temperature, resistance or test procedure for the sensor.
Reset as written by KitchenAid
- Cut the oven’s breaker for sixty seconds.
- Restore it.
- Look at the oven for a minute to see if the code is back.
- Confirm that the oven operates.
When it is back
The article stops there. A code that appears again points to a technician visit, because the display does not settle the sensor-versus-control-versus-wiring question, and cycling the breaker again will not either.
