BEEPING OVEN HAVE A KENMORE SLIDE IN ELECTRIC RANGE. WILL NOT STOP BEEPING UNLESS I UNPLUG IT. FAULT APPEARS AS F-1

Sears Parts Direct has the manual for the Kenmore 790.45062401 here: https://www.searspartsdirect.com/manual/69n6jkqbeh-000582/kenmore-79045062401-electric-range . Usually when a range beeps continuously, there is a communication problem between the key pad and the control board. It could indicate a short or a stuck key. That's part 20 on the backguard diagram: https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/69n6jkqbeh-000582/kenmore-79045062401-electric-range-parts .

Since you indicate that the door lock has been triggered with the door open, try pressing the Stop/Clear button. (Note: holding the Stop/Clear button will trigger the control panel lock.) If that doesn't return the lock to the normal position, you probably have a fault in the lock mechanism. See parts 88 and on the body diagram: https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/69n6jkqbeh-000582/kenmore-79045062401-electric-range-parts?page=3 . You can try to turn the latching rod by accessing the lock mechanism from the back of the range. (Unplug or turn the range off at the circuit breaker.) Since the lock mechanism gets a signal from the control board, check your wiring for damage. If needed, replace the lock or wiring.

I hope this helps. If your range is covered by a warranty, contact Sears/Kenmore or your extended warranty company.

Also
Sometimes shutting off the circuit breaker that the range or oven is connected to for 30 seconds will clear the fault, error or function code.

Also
F3 or F30 means that there may be a problem with the oven sensor.
Your oven sensor may need to be replaced.

Press the Stop/Clear button. If that doesn't work, press it and hold for 3 seconds. If you get a fault code, something is broken. If it is associated with broiling, the first thing I would check is the broiler temperature sensor. Is there a buildup of grease on the ceiling of the oven?

unplug the stove and re-plug it in

Same thing happened to mine this morning....cut the circuit breaker for a hour....open oven and let it cool....
mine stopped, finally. Dont know if its a long term fix yet.. but at least it stopped the beeping.

maximum oven door unlock time exceeded. Check wiring between eoc & door lock micro switch. more likely you need to replace the EOC

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 replacment 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.

hi, this appears to be a fault caused by a short in your keypad - electronic range control (ERC)

this needs to be replaced unfortunatly.

To assist you finding the proper part your model numbel means that the oven is manufactured by Whirlpool for Sears/kenmore.

my automatic cleaning setting in my oven will not heat up. I set "clean" on both dials and put the lock on, the fan comes on but no heat. Is there a certain system to turning it all on and the timer so it will work?

Looks like you will need the eoc to fix this one. If yours has a keypad that is separate from the eoc I would disconnect the ribbon first and see if the code goes away. If it does then the keypad needs replaced. If it is a keypad/eoc all in one then you need to replace it. Sears is good place to buy parts. You could compare prices a http://www.appliancepartspros.com/ also. I recommend Sears because of warranty and customer service.
