Whirlpool Electric Range W10400397B Error F2E0 on control panel

The F2 E0 error indicates a short at the key pad or a wiring issue between the control board and the keypad. Try pressing Cancel. Next turn off the range at the circuit breaker or unplug the range. Wait at least a minute before returning power to the system. Check if the error returns within a few minutes. Disconnect the power again and check the wiring between the control board and the key pad (if these aren't a single assembly). If the wiring connection is loose, secure the wires. If there is corrosion at the contacts, use a contact cleaner on the unit. Let the contact cleaner dry before connecting the power again. If the wires are damaged, replace the broken wires.

If those steps don't resolve the issue, replace the key pad or keypad and control board depending on the unit. If the error returns after replacing only the keypad, then the control board has to be replaced.

Please check the model number of the range. Current Whirlpool range models start with 3 or 4 letters, 2-3 numbers, another letter and another letter and 2 more letters. W10400397B could be a replacement part number for some specific item inside the range or the serial number. It isn't a valid Whirlpool part or model number at https://www.whirlpoolparts.com/ or https://www.partselect.com/Whirlpool-Oven-Parts.htm .

I hope this helps.

How to turn on numlk for gateway NE56R31u

You may have hit a certain combination of keys on your Gateway laptop and turned on the NumLock function accidentally. The result is that the rectangle of keys from the 7 key down to the question mark key have become a number-entry keypad. Worse, Gateway manuals don't discuss this function.

Hold down the "Fn" key on the bottom row of the keyboard, and press the "NumLk" key. Type the letters UIO. If they come out as numbers, move on to the next step. Hold down the "Fn" key and press the "F11" key. Type the letters UIO. If they come out as numbers, move on to the next step. Hold down the "Fn" key and press the F11 key and "Scroll Lk" key simultaneously. Type the letters UIO. If they come out as numbers, move on to the next step. Hold down the "Fn" key and press the "F9" key. Type the letters UIO. If they come out as numbers, move on to the next step. Hold down the "Fn" key and press the "Scroll Lk" key. Type the letters UIO. They should come up as letters. If none of these help, then it's probably a keyboard malfunction and you'll need to get it repaired.

Can't get past lock code

Laptop computers have the advantage being portable and self-contained, but among their drawbacks is a keyboard without a separate number keypad. While for most applications number keypads are unnecessary, they can be useful for data entry. Laptops sometimes provide a number keypad by giving certain keys double duty, allowing them to enter numbers rather than letters when a "Number Lock" setting is turned on. Number Lock, however, can get turned on accidentally, or enabled by an operating system by default, which can really mess up your typing. If typing "M" ends up displaying a "0" on your screen, Number Lock is probably the problem.

Try to locate the function key. On a T-series ThinkPad, it's in the lower left hand corner. It should be labeled "Fn," and the lettering may be blue, green or red instead of white. If your laptop lacks a "Fn" key, use the "Shift" key for Step 3 below instead. Locate the key labeled with "NmLk". On a T-series ThinkPad it shares a key with "ScrLk" which sits on the very top row between the "PrtSc" and "Pause" keys. On other IBM laptops, the "NmLk" key might share a key with "Delete." While holding down the "Fn" key or the "Shift" key, depending on your model, press the "NmLk" key. This should turn off Number Lock and restore your keyboard to its usual state. Number Lock on an IBM laptop is a "toggle" setting. You can turn Number Lock on by following the same steps.

In some programs, when i try to write letters, it writes numbers... but when i press and hold crtl it writes letter again.... wen i stop holding crtl, again writes with numbers

It sounds like your number lock has been turned on. If you hold your Function key down, which is usually displayed on the key as "Fn" and located at the bottom left of the keyboard by the control key and find the key in the top right that says "Num Lck" and press that, it should turn the number lock off.

What the number lock does is change some of your keys into a 10 key number pad, turning the number lock off disables this.

Hye mr expert...Here i have some question about my samsung netbook n220 series. For your info...actually this problem never happen before.The problem is some of my key not working & some of my key...

Hi,

The problem with your Netbook seems to be that you have turned "NUMBER LOCK" or "NUM LOCK" on. This causes some of the letter keys, e.g U,I,O,J,K,L,M to be printed as numbers 0,1,2,3,4,5,6.

To turn this off, hold down the "FN" key (near the bottom left of the keypad) and then press "F11" and then release both keys.

Please try this and post back if you need further assistance.

Regards,
BElectric

Some keys register different characters. For example the O registers the number 6 when it is typed.

This should be a simple fix, look at your keyboard, you should have a function key and if you look at the number pads above the top row of letters there should be either a numerical symbol or a key pad, your keyb board is simply using several keys as an extended numerical keypad. If you look closely at the letters there are small numbers on them. To fix hold down function key and pressing the keypad button. You can also try pressing the number lock.
