KitchenAid Oven Error Code F1-E0 — EEPROM Communication Error
What this means
The F1-E0 error code on KitchenAid ovens and ranges indicates an EEPROM communication error. The EEPROM is a memory chip on the control board that stores configuration data. When the control board can't read from or write to this chip, the oven cannot function properly. This is usually caused by a power surge or a failing control board.
Alternate codes: F1E0
Step-by-step fix
3 stepsPower cycle the oven
Disconnect power for at least 30 seconds, then reconnect. Allow at least a minute after power is restored. If the error code does not reappear, it was a temporary glitch.
Monitor for recurrence
If the F1-E0 code reappears after the power cycle, the EEPROM chip or control board has failed and the board needs replacement.
Replace the control board
Unplug the oven. Remove the control board access panel. Photograph all wire connections, disconnect them, remove the old board, and install the replacement.
Match the part number to your specific model.
When to call a professional
Control board replacement is a common repair, but if you're not comfortable with electrical work, have a technician handle it.
