JennAir Built-In Microwave F06 Code: Electronic Control

There is little to report on F06. On the built-in microwave page, JennAir suggests the Electronic Control or its wiring may be at fault, then gives the usual power reset. That is the extent of it.

What can safely be said

Think of the electronic control as the circuitry steering the microwave’s operation. The source leaves out the failed function, the choice between control and wiring, and whatever the control detected.

Reset

1. Switch the microwave’s breaker off.
2. Wait a minute, then switch it on again.
3. Stay put for a minute and see that F06 stays off the display.
4. Run the microwave to make sure it works.

If it does not hold

Arrange a visit; no further steps are listed by JennAir. An owner cannot service controls and wiring, and the inside of a microwave contains hazards that remain after unplugging.

F06 questions

Is F06 a repeat of F03 or F04?
The numbers differ and so do the control names (Electronic Control, against Electronic Oven Control). Whether the underlying fault is shared goes unstated, so treat each entry on its own.

Does the wait matter?
JennAir specifies a minute of breaker-off time. Stick to that rather than flicking the breaker.

Near-identical entries

• F03 and F04: “Electronic Oven Control” instead
• F6: “Oven Control”
