GE Range Error Code F6

The F6 error code indicates a problem with the oven temperature sensor or its electrical circuit, preventing the oven from accurately measuring and maintaining cooking temperature. This safety error will stop normal oven operation until the issue is resolved.

Step 01

Signs

• Oven will not heat or maintain temperature • Error code F6 displays on the control panel • Oven beeps repeatedly when attempting to use bake or broil functions • Range may not respond to temperature setting adjustments • Digital display shows the error code instead of temperature readings • Cooktop may still function normally while oven is disabled
Step 02

Possible Causes

• Faulty oven temperature sensor (RTD probe) that has failed or become loose • Damaged or corroded sensor wiring connections inside the oven cavity • Broken sensor connector or deteriorated connector pins • Control board malfunction preventing proper sensor signal reading • Loose terminal connections at the sensor or control board due to thermal cycling • Sensor circuit continuity failure from age or manufacturing defect • Improper oven door closure causing sensor misalignment in USA 240V models
Step 03

Safety Checks You Can Do

• Turn off the circuit breaker supplying power to the range for 60 seconds, then turn it back on to reset the appliance • Verify the oven door is closing completely and the latch is fully engaged • Check that the circuit breaker for the range in your electrical panel is fully on and not tripped • Allow the oven to cool completely for at least 30 minutes before attempting to use it again • Inspect the inside of the oven for any visible food debris, spills, or obstructions around the sensor area • Wipe the oven interior clean with a damp cloth to remove any buildup that might affect sensor function • Review your range's control panel settings to ensure no special modes or lock features are enabled • Attempt to clear the error by pressing the clear or cancel button on the control panel • Do not attempt to remove or adjust the temperature sensor yourself, as this requires professional service
Always disconnect power before performing any checks. If unsure, contact a certified technician.
