Self cleaned a magic chef, now receiving an f1 code. the oven won't turn on. the clock works, and the stove works

I just had the same problem! If I ever see that f9 again and hear that annoying constant beep....I will pick up and dispose of that oven on the front lawn. Lol. Took a pair of pliers and turned the lock clock wise till the light went out. Silence!

Hi, Before you go working too hard to get you oven to go intothe self clean mode(self destruct)....check out this tip...

Self Cleaning Oven Problem

" Wish I had read this first. I never would have used the self cleaningoption. Thanks for the info!!

F1 Defective touch pad or clock (ERC) Replace touch pad or clock (ERC). Touch pad is a more common problem. Refer to F1 test at the top of this page for more information. F3 or F4 Shorted or open oven temperature sensor (RTD) Check sensor harness and harness connection between oven sensor and oven control. Replace oven temperature sensor (RTD) if wiring is ok.

Hi

Error code F1 means a faulty keypad or connection problem with the keypad. You will need to check the connections of the keypad with the main board. Pressing Start/Cancel key may temporariliy resolve the issue, however, to resolve the issue you might need to change the keypad if the wiring to the keypad seems ok.


1. Disconnect power to oven.
2. Gain access to the back of the clock (electronic range control or ERC).
3. Unplug the touch pad ribbon connector from the ERC. This will be a flat wire approx. 1 1/2" to 2" wide.
4. Make sure everything is clear and will not short out when power is turned back on.
5. Turn power back on to stove.
6. Watch for the F1 and listen for the beep.

If it still shows as F1 then you'll need to replace the keypad.

Hope it helps...

Hello,this indicates a ERC/clock electronic range control fault.
Check or replace the touch pad or clock. The touch pad is a more common problem for this unit. Check for a stuck button by pressing each one and feeling for it retracting. This is easy to replace.
Thanks

You have 2 choices.
Replace the electronic control(clock).
Or, replace the range.(stove).

The F1 code is a defect touch pad or membrane

the burners on my magic chef stove work but the flame is not as high as it should be on one burner. I switched the top of the burner with another and it did not solve the problem.
