What F8E0 Means

  • Probe temperature reads incorrectly
  • Oven cancels probe cooking
  • Code appears when probe isn't even in use

Common Causes

Failed meat probe

Internal element open or shorted.

2
Probe inserted but not selected (or vice versa)

Damaged probe jack inside oven

Contacts dirty, bent, or corroded.

How to Fix It

  1. Unplug the meat probe from the oven jack.
  2. Press Cancel and verify the error clears.
