Reading F2/E6
Owners of a Kenmore 665 model range who see F2/E6 are being told that the Cancel key is defective. The manual treats it as a partner of F2/E5.
First moves from the manual
Disconnect power, or unplug the range.
If the keypad wire harness is loose, reconnect it.
Turn power on and press Cancel.
Past the first moves
Should F2/E6 persist at the 60 second mark, the keypad is replaced, and an electronic oven control follows if the problem is still there. Leave these replacements to a technician.
A keypad that no longer accepts Cancel needs hands-on testing, and Kenmore range repair connects San Francisco households with a technician. Call (415) 825-6393 and read out the code, the model number and the result of the harness check.
Model compatibility: Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F2/E6 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F2/E6 reports a defective Cancel key on the Kenmore 665 model range.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
