I have a magic chef range. I ran the self cleaning on the range. Now when trying to use the oven I get a F1 and a F3 code. I unplugged it for a while to reset and still have the same problem.

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

try starting self clean again then cancle it

This is the classic F1 error which is usually caused by a component failure in the control board. We repair a lot of this type of controller and would be happy to have a look at it for you if you can have the controller removed and sent to us.

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

Hi

F1 error means that you have either a bad ERC (clock) or a bad touch pad. To check these please follow these simple instructions:

1. Disconnect power to stove
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.
7. If you get the F1 and beep, replace the ERC.
8. If after approx. 30 minutes you do NOT get the F1 and hear the beep, replace the touch pad...

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.
