Error codeE03 / F0 / F00
ApplianceCooktop
Quick answer
An object, spill or dirt on the touch controls sets off E03, F0 and F00.
Model compatibility: JennAir reuses codes across series and model years, so E03 / F0 / F00 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
An object, liquid or soil is pressing on the control panel.
JennAir uses three labels for one problem. E03 is listed for induction cooktops, while F0 and F00 appear for electric and induction models. Each entry blames the control panel being pressed by an object, liquid or dirt.

Why the panel reacts
A glass touch control responds to contact. Something resting on the control panel, or liquid or soil on it, can create pressure that produces the code, and the control reports the fault in place of obeying a command.
What to do
Inspect the control area and remove whatever is on it.
Wipe any residue off the glass.
Turn the breaker off, wait one minute, then turn it back on.
For an induction cooktop, JennAir also asks you to let it cool before using it again.
Watch it for one more minute to confirm the code stays away, and check the cooktop operates.
Code back again
No failed part is named for E03, F0 or F00, and JennAir gives no more owner steps. If the code returns after a clean panel and a power reset, a technician should examine the controls. Do not flood the panel with cleaner while trying, as liquid is one of the listed causes.
Panel codes nearby
F1E0 and the related codes: F1E0 means keys are read as permanently pressed, with a clean-the-panel step.
