What F6 E6 means
Whirlpool built-in wall ovens such as the WOD51EC0HS double oven can show F6 E6 when the Upper Oven Appliance Manager Control or its wiring is the issue. That control runs the upper cavity. The display reads F6 E6, and the upper oven may not heat, may stop a cycle, or may ignore the keys, while the lower cavity could keep working.
Common causes of F6 E6
- Upper oven Appliance Manager Control
- Wiring and connectors to that control
- Power feeding the upper oven's control
1. Power the oven down at its breaker for a full minute. 2. Power it up. 3. Look for F6 E6 on the display during the next minute. 4. If all is clear, try the upper oven on a short bake.
- The code names one control and its wiring, but a reset will not show which one is behind it.
- We test the manager's output and check the harness first.
- The lower oven is checked as well, since the two cavities can share parts.
Other Wall Oven codes
Why does F6 E6 only name the upper oven?
The control it names runs the upper cavity. That is where the problem is reported, though we still look at the shared parts on a double oven.
Can I use the lower oven?
It may work, but we cannot promise it. If the display acts strangely, stop and let us look at the whole unit. That tells us how the two cavities are linked.
Is F6 E6 related to F6 E9?
The guidance name the Appliance Manager for both, one for the upper and one for the lower oven. They are separate controls, so we test the one that matches the cavity.
Still seeing F6 E6?
A technician diagnoses it on site and gives you the price in writing before any work starts.
