Which codes are covered
- F5E5 and F5E7
- 4D11, 4D12, 4D51 and 4D52
- 9D11, 9D12, 9D21 and 9D22
- 9D31, 9D32, 9D41 and 9D42
- 9D51, 9D52, 9D61 and 9D62
Help text for each of them is the same on the wall oven page. KitchenAid’s range page repeats it for F5E7. KitchenAid does not explain 9D31 versus 9D32.
Watch out: F5E5 on a range
F5E5 is described in two ways by KitchenAid. The door latch meaning above is from the wall oven page. The range page says the oven has not reached self-clean temperature after thirty minutes, and mentions a possible problem at the door hinges or door gasket. A range owner needs the range page, while the wall oven wording applies to wall ovens.
The reset KitchenAid gives
Power down at the breaker (or breakers) for sixty seconds, then power up. For the next minute, see if the code is displayed again. After that, find out how the oven runs.
What if it comes back?
Should any of these codes outlast the reset, service is needed. Door hardware, namely the latch and its switch, is wired into the control, and owners are offered no adjustment in the manufacturer’s text.
