The F1 code indicates a failed oven control board. This can be caused by a failed oven control and/or a faulty oven temperature sensor probe. It can be faulty temperature sensor.But if checked out ok then its faulty control board causing code f-1 on Kenmore oven.
The F1 error code normally indicates that you have a failure of the electronic oven control board. You can try unplugging the range for 5 minutes. If the F1 code returns when you plug the range back in, then the electronic oven control board will likely need to be replaced. A bad oven temperature sensor probe can cause this code on some ranges. If you have a volt/ohm meter, you can unplug the range and check this component. The first link below shows how to access the sensor probe on most Kenmore Elite freestanding ranges.Click this link:--- ------- On some ranges, you will need to access the sensor from the back of the range by removing the back panel. The second link shows this type of range. http://media.fotki.com/1_p,stfkfrswsbtgqsrxgtqsskgwtqkq,vi/rbgdsrqfxrswtsdgtdxrwdgtfktd/1/1303472/5961857/image1252390169549473443img-or.jpg------------------- The sensor normally has violet wires going to it. If you can access and unplug the sensor, you can measure the resistance through this component with a volt/ohm meter. You should measure near 1100 ohms through the sensor on most Kenmore Elite ranges. If the sensor is bad, it will need to be replaced. You can order parts from the Sears PartsDirect website.
