We have a may tag convection oven tat is displaying error code F5E2

The damper is a door inside that opens or closes depending on cooking mode (open for microwaving, closed for convection cooking). If the controller senses that the door is not in the right position, it will shut down the cook cycle or display an error code.

This is a problem in one of the damper-related components, either the damper switch or damper motor, or the damper door may be binding.

I can provide more specific help if you will let me know your full model number as shown on the tag inside the cooking cavity or around the door area.

To help you with free DIY or other info, we would need your full model number as shown on the tag in the cooking cavity or elsewhere on the oven.

The FCC ID number from the same tag might be helpful for diagnosis, too.

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.

The error code F2 on your GE microwave indicates "Shorted thermal sensor", this condition will occur if a shorted thermal sensor is detected continuously over 5 seconds on convection, combination or roast cooking.
. It takes a minimum of 5 minutes of convection run time before this code will be
displayed. More information on this error code, as well as other error codes, can be found at

Best of Luck with your microwave.

The technical sheets in my files do not list F6 on the error code chart for GE microwaves.

Generally, these are the error codes possible on GE microwaves:

F1 open thermal sensor (convection models)
F2 shorted thermal sensor (convection models)
F3 key panel shorted for more than 60 seconds
F4 open humidity sensor
F5 shorted humidity sensor

There should be a "mini-manual" (technical sheet) hidden inside the unit behind the control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is very helpful when troubleshooting, & testing.



At our Web site, we have a video available showing how to remove a typical over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

Hello I´ve repaired a couple of ACE208 with hot message in the display. The problem is in the convection fan located on the back of the oven cavity, turn the oven on and quickly open the door and look inside to see if the fan is spinning (slowing down, the fan stopps when you open the door but you can see it slowing down) if it is not spinning the supporting screws of the fan sometimes loosen up causing the fan to hit the oven walls preventing the fan to spin freely -probably before the problem started to happen you could hear a loud noise- the fan can´t move the air throgh the warming elements causing them to overheat hence the hot message. The fan motor rarely fails so all you need to do is remove the stainless steel cover and the back black cover and tighten the mounting screws of the convection fan and clean it if it´s dirty. Hope this helps, both the ovens with hot message I have repaired get the green tag just by doing this or replacing the motor, I have no knowledge of other problems that may cause this.

So we can help you, please post a NEW FixYa inquiry which includes your full model number from the tag on the unit, and the answer to these questions:

Is it dead? (meaning no display, no beeps when you press a pad on the keypad and the inside light does not come on when you open the door)

Is it running but not heating?

Any usual noises?

Does it shut off after a few seconds when you try to cook with it?

Of so, exactly how many seconds?

Are there any error codes on the display?

Also, if you;re not in the US, which country are you in?

It needs a new key pad it is shorted the ge website has a list of error codes f3 is the keypad
