I have a GE profile smooth top stove with flat panel control for the oven. A couple hours after finishing some baking, the oven starts to beep and the F0 code appears. I left it for a couple of hours and begun hitting random buttons. The keypad started to respond so I tried to turn the oven on, which it did. Today, I wanted to self clean the oven. I set it to the 4hr cycle and it began. However, after about 30 minutes, it started beeping again, and it displayed the same error code again. My husband turned off the main breaker for 40 minutes and after doing so, the oven display came back on without the error code, so I started the self clean cycle again. It stopped and showed the error code again and will not function. The stove top does work though. What does the F0 error code mean, and how much $$ am I looking at to fix it? PS- this is barely 4 yrs old along with my other GE profile appliances in my home. All but the dryer have had issues. I am very disappointed at the cost of these appliances and how well they have lasted. Thanks for your assistance, Amber

Judy, I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, F0 indicates a failed thermister control. The solution is to replace the Electronic Relay Control (ERC, sometimes called a "clock"). F7 can be one of two things, 1.) Failed keypad or 2.) Failed ERC. Since you have F0 AND F7 error codes, you'll be looking at replacing the ERC. These are extremely pricey, unfortunately. You'll need to get the entire model number and serial number. These are located at the bottom of your oven... pull the drawer out and you'll see the data tag down there. After you have those numbers, call your local appliance parts retailer for a price. It'll be around $175, just for the ERC.

I would this that it is more likely that the f0,f7 codes are more indicative of a defective touchpad.Both of these codes can be caused by shorted circuits in the touchpad. We actually rebuild electronic range controls ( among other things)

I keep getting FO code and beeping won't clear

Hello George,

The F0 error code means that the computer thinks a button on the touchpad is stuck. Sometimes this can be resolved by making sure the touchpad connector fits tight into the control board. The F0 code can be cleared by pushing CANCEL/OFF. If it returns the touchpad needs to be replaced .

I can't find my manual. The power went out and when it came back on my machine now beeps incessantly and flashes an F2. Don't know what that stands for or how to stop the beeping. Unplugged and plugged...

Well I feel your pain. I have the same machine and we had a winter storm about 3 weeks ago and had a power outage too. When I went to reset my answering machine it shows a F0 code which I can't find out what it means either. I also have tried everything, nothing works, none of the buttons respond and all i get is the F0 error code and constant beeping. I am still trying desperately to find a cure for this. Like you I'm afraid the power surge fried something. The manual gave one number which is 1-800-222-3111, I called and they couldn't help me because this was an old discontinued model. Grrrr...
I can give you the web site to get a copy of your manual that you can print or read:

If you find a cure for this please post it. I love this machine and think it is so much better than most of whats out there. I don't want to have to replace it but need to do something soon. Good luck, Barb

Magic Chef Oven intially was beeping and indicating --F0 default code

Hi tjsolutions2,

The function key stuck, that's the F0 error code means. To fix this, replace touch pad or if touch pad is part of the clock, replace the clock (ERC).

Hope it helps.

An F0 lights and beeps on the pannel for the bottom oven

F0 typically means a shorted OFF key. You can trouble shoot this with an ohmmeter. Turn off the power. Disconnect the ribbon cable. Check flat cable pins 13-14. Normally the ohmmeter should show an open circuit. Press the OFF key. The resistance should be 100 to150 ohms. If all this turns out to be normal, there is probably an intermittent short circuit.

F0 error - My GE Over displays an F0 error & constantly beeps

Appu, the F0 error for this built in means there is a shorted or stuck off key. Sometimes this can be resolved by removing the keypad ribbon cable from the board and cleaning the ends with an eraser. If that doesn't work, you want to find out whether its the board or keypad by ohming the ribbon cable, 3 to 4, probes on the conductor side...should read 125 to 1750 ohms while pressing the off key.
