F37 is tied to a possible induction coil temperature sensor problem, with a one-minute breaker reset as the only step.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so F37 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 problem with a temperature sensor on an induction coil.
One explanation, one procedure
KitchenAid’s pages link F37 to a sensor that reads temperature on an induction coil, noting it may have a problem. The code is written up in the same article as F36 for the electric and induction cooktops.
At a glance
| Code | F37 |
|---|---|
| What it means | A possible problem with a temperature sensor on an induction coil. |
| What you can check | Remove power at the breaker or breakers for a minute, restore it, and allow one minute to confirm F37 does not come back. Then check how the cooktop behaves. |
| When to call a technician | A code that returns after the reset has no further owner step, so plan a service visit. Jot down whether it appeared at start-up or mid-use to help the technician. |
Reset sequence
- Use the breaker (or breakers) to remove power for a minute.
- Put power back.
- Allow one minute to confirm F37 does not display again.
- Check how the cooktop behaves.
Questions
What does the sensor do?
Generally speaking, it passes the coil’s heat level to the control. That is a general description, not KitchenAid’s; its page says nothing about where the sensor is, how it fails or how to test it.
What if the code returns?
Then the reset has not helped, and no owner step comes after it. Plan for a technician.
A log worth writing
Jot down the date, the food being cooked, and whether the code came at start-up or in the middle of use. KitchenAid does not list these as checks, so the reset is unchanged, yet an organized history makes a service call about a suspected sensor shorter.
Codes to compare
- F36: identical sensor text plus a communication explanation.
- E_21 and related: overheating on induction, put down to the temperature of the electronics.
