Hello I just bought a Kenmore Electric Range and I am now installing it in my kitchen. I am attempting to connect the power to the range. I have a large romex looking wire coming from the house wall. It has a White neutral, a white and black hot, and a copper ground wire. My new electric range has a red, black, white and ground. How do I mate the two? My first attempt has white with white and the red and black from the range with the black from the house. And the grounds wires together. I get power to the range, lights come on but no heating element will heat up. It seems it is getting 120 but not the full 240. Thanks for the help. Donald

Electricity is stored in the microwave, and before removing the panel to remove the fuse, you must wait several hours with the power off, and the power plug disconnected. You really may not be the right person to attempt this, as you could be seriously injured if shocked.

Yes! it is a real possibility, or the inverter board is defective. Since it is brand new, have the person who you bought it from take it back to the place of purchase because he is the original buyer and the one with the warranty.

HELLO.

When the F8 code appears,it means that electric control requires replacement because the relay drive circuit has been lost.

Attempt to clear the code by pressing Cancel and cutting power to the range for 30 seconds.

If the code cannot be cleared, replace the electric control.

thanks.

need at least #12 (12guage wire) but #10 is even better and requires 50 amp breaker

Hello, This is a failed oven sensor. You would have to install a new oven sensor...

Every range I have seen has wires that extend beyond the slide in or drop in so that an electrician can run an electrical line near by. I expect that your existing range has wires that are wire nutted to an extended line from your electrical service protected by a double circuit breaker located in your service cabinet. Remember that the range takes 220V ac service or three wires at least for hook up. A trip to Best BUY or any other like store, will enable you to observe a range in its un mounted state. This way you can plan how you are going to execute the swap.

I suspect that you can slide the range part way out to where you can reach the hook up ad un wire nut the connections.

One quick way would be to look on the top of the unit. Do you see empty screw holes where the screws going through the cabinet above it will go through and screw into the top of that unit? If no open screw holes on top of unit probably not an over the range model. Also, look under the bottom of the machine. do you see feet??? Or just aluminum screen vent filters. If feet and no filters probably a counter top unit.

I would suggest having whoever installed the new appliances come back and check out his work. There might be a poorly made electrical connection somewhere, and you might have a potential fire hazard.

You might also have gotten a lemon microwave oven. This happens sometimes. (Usually when I buy something.) Contact the store where you purchased it and ask if they have a service person who can check it, or just tell them what's happening and you want a replacement. They'll just return yours to the manufacturer.

In any case, have this checked out to be sure your wiring isn't at fault.

the link below will take you to the installation instructions if needed.
It is much easier for two people to remove the microhood. If attempting alone, please move the range out so you can get under the micro to support the weight. If the range stays in place, protect the top from damage.
1. make a landing site to the side to protect the floor when putting the micro down after removal.
2. Disconnect the power cord in the cabinet above.
3. loosen the two screws in the bottom front corners of the cabinet above. When removed the front of the micro will drop, be ready for the weight. Busy times, tools in hands microwave coming down in front.
4. tilt the front down. pull the cord out of the upper cabinet.
5. with micro still tilted down in front, lift the back of the unit upward to free it from the wall plate.
6. remove the fasteners in the wall plate and remove.
Congrats, begin celebration.

Hello, please use the chart to determine which stove you have. You will have to look at the model number. The first 3 numbers will be the series on the chart. In most cases an F1 error would require replacement of the electronic control. This part is commonly refered to as an EOC or ERC. However this type of repair is usually reserved for repair specialists.

KENMORE Range/Stove/Oven Fault Codes – 362 Series (General Electric)
F1 = Stuck Touch Pad Key - Replace Electronic Range Control (ERC).

KENMORE - 911 Series (General Electric/Roper)
F0-F1-FF = Failed transistor in Electronic Range Control (ERC).

KENMORE Range/Stove/Oven Fault Codes- 665 Series (Whirlpool)
F1-E0 EPROM Error - Electronic Range Control (ERC).
F1-E1 EPROM Error - Electronic Range Control (ERC).
F1-E2 U/L ERC Errors - Electronic Range Control (ERC).
F1-E3 Fuel Type Fail

Kill power 30 seconds-Cancel-Start/Enter-5 seconds-Should see “E” for electric-
“9” for gas-If code changes again-replace Electronic Range Control (ERC).

KENMORE - 790 Series Electronic Oven Control (Frigidaire)
F1 = Shorted Touch Pad = Electronic Range Control (EOC) Internal check sum error.
Runaway Temp = Replace Electronic Oven Control (EOC).

Kill power 30 seconds - if error returns - replace Electronic Oven Control (EOC).

Thanks
