This seems to be a common problem with these ovens. The oven got too hot and the tco (Thermo cut off)tripped. This will have to be replaced. It is located behind the control board.

your oven is now in C degrees, you have to switch it back to F degrees

F1 usually means that that the control board has failed. In rare cased depending on your model, the keypad can also cause an F1. If you disconnect the keypad from the control board and the F1 still comes on, it is definitely the control board. These can be refurbished at fixyourboard.com.

Anything with 'F1' for Whirpool or GE means the control module has failed. We repair these frequently at fixyourboard.com. Do a google search and you can see you options.

There is always going to be a problem whe you run your self clean feature. Your oven heats to over 800 degrees and this high heat takes out electronic parts.

F1 code on your oven means "Electronic control malfunction". Clean contacts and reconnect all wires on the control board. If it does not help - replace oven control board. You'll also need to program the oven cavity size in the new control board. Model number is incomplete, so can't tell the part number, can be either 8301919 or 8301345

On 4 wires one is Ground, one is common, The other 2 are line voltage 110-130 VAC. Ground and Common serve the same purpose. Change the cable with the plug to match the outlet in the home ( get the cable off your old stove). Be sure the plug is out of the outlet. Hook up as in old stove.

If you do not feel confident get an electrician so you do not get hurt on burn down you home.

Self cleaning features are not recommended by most appliance technicians. The ovens are not constructed satisfactorily to expel the 1000 degree heat, Therefore the thermal fuses blow as well as other parts failures.
Remove the oven. Remove the rear panel. Replace the thermal fuse in the back of the oven. Use Easy Off next time.

Your electronic control board is bad. (clock).
It must be replaced.

I have the same problem. Who has a solution?

Brandyz Most likely the problem with your range is the spark module. It is located in the control panel on the right hand side. You can access it by removing the back panel held with four screws from the back. Remember to unplug the range first. The name plate with the model number and the serial number is on the frame behind the storage drawer. You can buy the spark module here: http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=SrmyP8LkIos&offerid=92089.545301030&type=10&subid= It comes with installation instructions. Gendos...post back

Since this is a new install, check around the perimeter of the oven door and see if it is closing all the way flat against the surface. The hinge could have partially popped out and needs to be reset. Can you tell if the oven door is popped out at the top portion of the oven door or the lower portion of the door?

Waiting to hear from you,

It has been a while since he was there. Did you have to replace a board? Hopefully, it is fixed.

Check from your receptacle to the plug to the back of the oven. Then the wires that attach to the elements. Sounds like this is your problem. If this is not it, then you may have a bad board.
