Error code FO - GE Profile JTP18 Electric Single Oven

it usually means the touch pad or the oven control is defective.

Seems F0 is a problem either with the control panel or with the key panel
Here is a test to find out whether its your control panel or control board:

Determine if problem is with the Key Panel or Control by:
1. Pushing CLEAR/OFF pad.
2. Disconnecting Ribbon Cable from control and waiting at least 32 seconds to see if Code recurs

If code recurs, problem is in the control. Replace control.

If code does not recur, problem is with the Key Panel.

You can go to this site to find replacements

fo stands for fan oven , sounds like the fan is giving trouble

Hello,

The FO error codes means that a button on the touchpad has shorted out and teh touchpad needs to be replaced. In some cases you will get that error code because the ribbon cable on the touchpad hasa loose connection at the clock. check that the connection is tight.
The error code can be cleared by pushing the clear/off button,if it returns the touchpad will need to be replaced.

Hello, I had the same FO error. It turned out that the ribbon cable from the front panel was not making good contact where it mated with the circuit board. Remove ribbon cable and clean contacts on ribbon cable. Replace cable and problem should resolve.

Thanks

F0 Function key stuck Replace touch pad or if touch pad is part of the clock, replace the clock (ERC).

solved by rotate the temperature knob!!!
maybe would be a problem of the potentiometer or knobe of temperature

If your appliance is newer than 1996 F0 error code is a stuck key pad .
To verify turn off power and access the control panel and remove the ribbon connector that goes from key pad to control board .
Now restore power.
If the F0 code goes away you'll have to replace the key pad .
If it stays it means the control board is bad.
