Error codeF2E1
ApplianceRange
A stuck key is what F2E1 reports on Kenmore slide-in electric ranges with 664 model numbers.
Free the key, then reset
Press down on and around every key so the stuck one comes loose.
Take power away for 30 seconds, at the plug or at the range breakers, and restore it.
If it comes back
The manual disconnects power and replaces the key panel. A problem that continues after that sends it to the oven control board. When the model begins 664.9511, the key panel is already part of that board. Replacing the parts is for a technician.
Keys that stay jammed after the reset are worth a technician visit, and Kenmore range repair serves San Francisco and nearby Bay Area homes. When you call (415) 825-6393, say which key sticks and give the full model number.
Model compatibility: Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F2E1 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
