Default Kenmore Elite Error F20 Oven not working
Brand: Kenmore
Model Number: 790.99123405
Age: 1 - 4 years

I just remodeled the kitchen, moved the slide-in oven/range back in, plug it in and I get an F20 error. Nothing will work but the clock. I can use the controls and they seem to think that the oven turns on, but it doesn't get hot. Also, the burners won't turn on unless the oven is on (they don't actually turn on either, but the display will say they are on).

This is a Kenmore model 790.9912 3405 and is 18 months old. I've tried resetting the breaker, unplugging and replugging, I even took off the back panel and blew out dust with my compressor, checked connections, hoping that would help. Is this f20 error something I can fix?

Noteworthy - I did use the oven self-cleaning feature about 2-3 weeks ago. After reading the horror that can wreak upon the electronics that'll be the last time!

F20 error solved!

Solution: What irony! Just when I finished remodeling the kitchen the oven plug quit on me! I cleaned up the terminals and oialah! Problem fixed!

FYI: for F20 error Frigidaire calls it a "Communication failure between EOC and ESEC system. Recommended action: Test harness/connections P4 (EOC) & P11 (Surface Element Control Board). If harness checks OK, failure can be caused by faulty UIB, surface element control board, or EOC."
