Hi im an appliance tech and i had the same problem its not the EOC other words control board its actually the speed bake swith its stuck in the on position that why you get a stock keypad error code either f1 or f11 replace that switch or disconnect it and im positive that this will solve it .
Unbelievable. Just pulling the panels apart fixed the problem on my oven. Peter, you are the man.
My range started the beeping and F11 failure today and the tec assisted my by having me to tkurn flick off the breaker for 2 mins. and then flick the breaker back on. The beeping persisted so I called the repairman which will come out next week. Well after a couple of mins. more, the beeping stopped.
Will the oven still work or did it only stop the beeping?
Peter, where is the speed brake switch?
Peter, where is the speed brake switch?
Thank you, I had the same problem and it is totally solved!
Thanks for the advice! This fixed my oven, unfortunately I had just replaced the control board and still had the error code. I saw your comment and checked the switch and problem solved!
how do I check the switch or disconnect it?
How do I disconnect the switch?

F11 is definitely a key stuck failure and I didn't require any parts to fix this.
The cause of the problem is an over abundant use of double sided tape at the factory. I suspect that either heat or continued use of certain buttons causes the glue to weep into the button/contact pad causing the button to stick to the contact. On powering up our range showed PF and if you waited 10-15 secs without touching any keys F11 would display and and there was continuous beeping. I verified this was the case by removing the upper rear panel of the stove and disconnecting the keypad connector from the upper left of the lockout board. Then on powering up our range simply sat there showing PF. Of course you can't get past this with the keyboard disconnected anyway.
The fix--- to make repair easier I removed the glass panel to which the keypad is stuck from the range. Pull off the burner knobs and you will find plastic nuts holding the glass panel to the metal housing. Remove the plastic nuts (make sure you let the keyboard connector go first by pulling the connector lock -small tabs on either side of the keyboard ribbon - towards you about 1/8". The ribbon cable will then slide right out.) Use a razor blade to gently work your way around the plastic trim bezel and remove the bezel. The keypad actually consists of three plastic sheets sandwiched together. You only need to remove the top 2 layers. Layer 1 is the printed keypad and layer 2 is the contact pad.
You have to be careful in all this or you may crease or damage a panel. I started the edge with a razor blade and then stuck in the edge of a spatula. The idea is not to slide the spatula in but rather to insert it a small amount and lift. Slide it in a little more and lift. Just have a little patience and don't simply try and slide the spatula in or you may scrape the keypad and/or contact pad. While I suppose the more AR of us would then have to clean all the double sided tape off I simply cleaned up the keypads and matching contact pads. I stuck the whole thing back together and reattached the keyboard ribbon cable (hold it in place while pushing in the cable lock mentioned above. If you aren't too squeamish you can test the keypad while you have everything apart as follows: Connect the contact pad (this is the part with the ribbon cable attached) to the lockout board. Power up the stove. At PF touch one of the keypads to the stop/cancel contact pad. The PF should be cleared and you should be able to operate the oven by touching one of the keypads to appropriate contact pads.
Thanks,
You save me a 176.00 plus technician Service. Ido what did you said in an a half hour and its work. Really Thanks
Just so you know we haven't had a problem since.
Well, we followed your path, which was very helpful, but we have not solved our F11 problem. yet. We have the problem on a slide in model with the controls out front. We were able to expose the Electronic Oven Contro and disconnect the ribbon connectors per your instructions. When powered up, there was no error message and we were able to work all the burners. Of course nothing that ran from the other controls would work, because of the disconnected ribbons. We then very carefully removed the silver covering on the control panel, uncovering the keypad base and we peeled back the flexible layer underneath the keypad. We suspected the problem was with the Pizza button, as the pizza light was on when we tested and the pizza button was the only one on the pad that, when pushed, would not generate a beep. Hanving separated the keypad from the base, therefore being assured that no buttons were contacted, and powered up the beast. Mush to our dismay, the F11 error still occured. The question nowis, does this eliminate the keypad as a culprit and implicate the electronic overn controller as the part needing replacement?
I just started having this problem today. My wife spilled some water on it and the beeping started about 10 minutes later. Could the water have shorted something out?
What did you use to clean the adhesive off
I also had the F11 error. We had a pot of stock boiling for a while, and steam from under the lid was shooting straight at the keypad. I peeled the keypad pieces apart slowly by using a Q-tip soaked in rubbing alcohol. I then cleaned the pieces with rubbing alcohol. There was enough tackiness left to hold everything together once cleaned. It's working so far! Thanks for the awesome tip!
Ron, we had exactly the same issue with a steaming pot. I followed the above directions and it all worked perfectly ... except... I am a little careless with the razor blade and now the light and the lock buttons (side-by-side) do not work when I hit them. Their wires were close to the edge and it looks like I cut through them. I guess if I could have picked any buttons to mess up, those are the ones I would have chosen. Every button controlling the oven/clock/timers are working perfectly.
THANK YOU menkhor & Ron Allen! We just bought a used stove and thought we got scammed out of our money because it was doing the F11 error and wouldn't stop beeping. You saved us from having to pay even more money for someone to come repair it and replace the keyboard.
We peeled apart the layers of the plastic on the keypad and cleaned both layers with rubbing alcohol until all the adhesive residue was gone. So far all the buttons are working and it hasn't given us any errors! THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!
THANK YOU Menkhor!!! I followed your cleaning instructions and all appears well. My model must be different because I had to access the panel from the rear of the stove. (there are u-tube videos showing how to safely remove and replace).I spent 30 minutes on the actual fix and at least 30 minutes researching the issue which led me to Menkhors instructions. Saved our family budget in a big way as we live in a remote location. Much Appreciated!
Menkhor!! Thank you for saving my sanity and wallet! The beeping was driving me nuts but cleaning the pads with rubbing alcohol solved the problem! Thanks again!

Hello! I just have the same problem with the F11 error code just last weekend. I have unplugged my stove for the time being. I will try to follow this instruction and let you guys know. Hope it works for me.
Same F11 for me as well. This solution worked like a charm. Remember to cut the power to the appliance. Take extra care/exercise patience when separating the boards. Other than that, this repair was pretty straight forward and not nearly as intimidating as it sounds thanks to the well written post by menkhor.
Thank you alot it helped me bunches I can't thank you enough
This works even with more recent models, thanks!
That worked on my Frigidaire Induction stove in 2018. One day ahead of a large family gathering late in the day. Done quickly in the evening. Thanks.
We had the same problem it should be a recall range is only 11/2 years old . I followed the steps and it is good again . Thanks for the info
I followed the steps and the beep stop when I put everything back together. All my bottoms does works. Any ideas how to fix my new problems now?
Thank you so much for the information. Had this error code and when I took apart the EOC it was covered on both sides in glue goop! Completely fixed with the power of rubbing alcohol and Q-tips. Thank you again so much!
Wow, thank you for this. You saved me a $200 visit from a technician. Q-tips and rubbing alcohol was all I needed.
I have F11 code on my range, but my keypad is not like Yours. I have small micro switches soldered into
a circuit board. Do you have any ideas for fixing mine?

Peter is right. If you dont want to try ad bypass the switch you can replace the keypad (turn the power off first) and the keypad should run about $30. The EOC or ERC (electronic oven control) runs about $160. His idea is easiest and least expensive.
I fixed this by 1. carefully removing the overlay 2. Cleaning the contact area of the control board contacts and overlay contact areas by rubbing with Q-tips and alcohol 3. dry the contact areas with dry Q-tip 4. carefully re-apply the overly to the controller. I reinstalled and no more F11 error!
My 2-yr old Frigidaire stove has F11 error and keeps beeping as well. I have extended warranty from Sears but too bad Sears stopped honoring the service under liquidation. Have to figure out the fix to save some money. Followed the steps as described and solved the issue. Thank you for the info. Great help!
I got mine fixed. 15 minutes to take the keypad off, and 5 minutes cleaning. Thanks menkhor and the forum.
A QUICK AND EASY FIX. Thanks...
Unplug the stove. Removed the Mother Board. Used a hair dryer to remove the face plate/film. Used q tips/alcohol and cleaned the touch points. Replaced everything. Plugged back in...and Walah!! F11 code is gone.
Thanks!!!!!
I follow the steps and the beep stop. But non of my bottoms on control panel works now. Any ideas?
Best method is to replace the oven and throw anything else related to Frigidaire away. I have this issue and had a similar issue with the Frigidaire dishwasher that constantly had its touch panel short out. I wasted money and time to fix the dishwasher...not doing the same for the oven Frigidaire sucks
Thanks to menkhor, did fix my F11 issue. I could see that there was traces of carbon on my contact, Cleaned it with acetone on both layer and bingo!
My oven turns on by itself . 350 shows up on the display it starts beeping and go's to F11. Sometimes I can cancel it but it comes back on over and over. I have it unplugged now. Should I try to clean it or replace the EOC
Guys this mi first post ever to say thank you to all of you mostly menkhor for that detail fix, u rock dude . U guys save me a lot of money and I did it in half hour. Thank u again.
I had the same exact issue, f11 error code on a frigidaire range oven. Almost ordered a $160 EOC but I tried the cleaning option first. I cleaned the contacts on the EOC after removing the key pad and voila! It worked! The problem could be the keypad getting stuck on the EOC because of the glue. Personally I think just removing the keypad and putting it back may solve the problem.
I have a similar issue, with some differences. All of my contact buttons appear to not be stuck, but I cleaned them anyway, as well as the plastic cover that actually presses the buttons on the electronic board.
Now when I plug the range back in, the door locked light flashes while the locking mechanism engages. Then I get a F90 code, which indicates a problem with the door locking. I press clear, and this clears the F90 code, only to bring back that pesky F11 code again.
I am hoping that there is something else I can do, without having to replace the EOC. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks to Peter and Menkhor. I fixed my F11 error by removing the overlay and cleaning the switches, similar to what Ron Allen explained.
Thank you for your inquiry, Katherine!
Based off the information you have provided your Frigidaire range is displaying an error code of "F11". An "F11" error code stands for a shorted keypad I would recommend performing a reset on your range. You can do that by flipping off the household circuit breaker for at least ten minutes. If that does not correct your issue it could be a possible problem with your EOC (Electronic Oven Control) or wiring harness. Hopefully this information is helpful for you. -Matt
I appreciate your inquiry, friend!
I see that you are having a difficult time with your Frigidaire range displaying an "F11" error code. That error code stands for a shorted keypad and I would recommend performing a reset on your range. You can do that by flipping the household circuit breaker off for roughly ten minutes. If you restore power and continue to receive an "F11" code you may need to replace the EOC (Electronic Control Panel) this is not a simple DIY job. I would recommend contacting a professional technician for proper disassembly and repairs to be completed. I hope this is helpful information. -Matt
Hi Ken Kazemi - Typically error code F11 indicates a shorted keypad. Try resetting the range by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. This usually will clear most false error codes. Wait approximately ten minutes and if it proves to be ineffective contact a professional to move forward accurately. Most likely the EOC on the range will need replacing.

Beeping F11 error on Frigidaire
none stop beeping. we have to cut it off from the breaker box.
I have the same problem!
Same problem. No help on what it means or any solution.
Same problem. Seems to be temperature sensitive. Service people suggest a whole new electronics module, unfortunately. Sure would like to find a cheaper fix!
We had this happen tonight. We were cooking and all of a sudden the error message came on. We've only had the range for 11 months. Will our warranty cover this?
what is a speed bake switch? and where is it located and what do you give up if diconnected?
Not only do I have an F11 error message, but the oven is locked and I can't open the door to get my SOMEWHAT WARM raw chicken out. I hold the clear/off button down to unlock the door like book says for 3 seconds, then hold it longer because nothing happens, and then it says "F 11"
I can't even set the time on it. I've tried shutting it off at the breaker and waiting, then turning it back on, but nothing. I don't have "speed bake" on my oven model.
Hi ours is similar except we have a double convection oven and no speed bake button. For what it's worth, it seems like the "conv bake" button is ultra sensitive especially when the oven is hot. Have to pop breaker until it cools down otherwise F11 stays along with beeping and won't go away. Any ideas?
In stuck my oven is beeping and I can't pull it out and this constant beeping is driving me crazy. I am kind of amazed that the person that designed Thor would add such an annoying feature. It's there anything that I might be able to do???

Just picked one of these up for a rental.
Craigslist
Fixed in about 10min Thanks!
Quite a nice stove for $40!
Just fixed mine using eyeglass swabs. The glue they used slimed over the electronics. Simply remember to clean both sides. Tech was just out to give quote if $350. Up his
Mine started beeping hours after I let a teapot boil too long. I took a hair blow dryer, and heated the touchscreen and the opening below the control panel for about 2-3 minutes. This has at least temporarily stopped the F!! and beeping
