What does F34 mean as an error message?
Hello, welcome to FixYa.
The "F34" code on your model of Thermador double oven indicates the control has detected an error with the airflow for the upper oven ( all lower codes start with "6", upper start with "3" )
This could indicate a faulty blower motor, not coming on at all, or if it does come on and still initiates an F34 error, it is likely the sail switch is sticking. It can be removed and cleaned as they do become contaminated with dirt, grease and dust over time.
The sail switch is located at the very bottom of the ovens where the grill is, under the lower door. example:
( F34 can also be initiated by a failed "K6" relay on the control board, but that is less likely )
It can be accessed by way of removing the grill, however it is something usually best left to an authorized B/S/H/ service provider as it can be quiet involved and is better to pull the unit from the wall.
**Turn off the 40 amp breaker to the oven before attempting any service...safety first**
B/S/H/ is the parent company for Bosch, Thermador, Gaggenau, Siemens.
