What Does Monogram Oven Error Code F8 Mean?

The F8 error code on a Monogram oven or range indicates that the meat probe (temperature probe) is shorted or there is a problem with the probe circuit. When the probe or its receptacle port develops a short circuit, the control board detects the abnormal resistance and triggers F8.

Common Causes of the F8 Error Code

  • Damaged meat probe – The probe cable can be damaged by the oven door catching it, or the probe tip can short internally from heat damage.
  • Contaminated probe receptacle – Food drips, grease, or moisture in the probe port can cause a short circuit.
  • Faulty probe wiring – Internal wiring of the probe can short from repeated high-temperature exposure.

How to Troubleshoot the F8 Error Code

  1. Remove the meat probe – If a probe is inserted, remove it. F8 should clear immediately if the probe itself was shorted.
  2. Clean the probe receptacle – With the oven cooled and unpowered, clean the probe port with a dry cotton swab.
  3. Inspect the probe cable – Check for pinching, melting, or physical damage.
  4. Reset and test without probe – Reset the oven and run a normal bake cycle without the probe to confirm normal operation.
