"F1" error code on Magic Chef gas range Model...

When you plug the stove in , the clock display starts beeping and displays error code "F1" and doesn't stop until you unplug the unit. If you plug in again you get the same error.

On a diagnostic web site I found the following information: "F1" error means either (1) Watchdog on board or (2) touch membrane defective.

- What do these mean?
- Is there any inexpensive solution to this problem? CAn anything be disconnected so that the stove works properly without getting the errer?

I have the same problem

I know someone who can solve this problem

The oven will heat up and then shut off and start beeping. It flashes an F1 error.

When I turn on my oven I get an F1 code after about ten minutes, and the oven stops heating. Any advice would be appreciated.

My Magic Chef is probably 15-20 years old. It has, for no apparent reason, started beeping and flashing F1 error code. Pushing the "clear" button stops it momentarily and sometimes for hours, but tonight it started at midnight and has been doing it ever sense. HELP! How do I make it stop?

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.
