What Does Monogram Oven Error Code F2 Mean?
The F2 error code on a Monogram oven or range indicates that the oven temperature has exceeded the safe operating threshold. There are two F2 scenarios:
- During Bake mode: F2 triggers when oven temperature exceeds approximately 615–630°F (324–332°C)
- During Self-Clean mode: F2 triggers when oven temperature exceeds approximately 915–930°F (490–499°C)
When F2 appears, the oven shuts down all heating to protect the appliance and your home from a potential runaway temperature condition.
Common Causes of the F2 Error Code
- Welded or stuck relay contacts on the control board – The relay that controls the bake or broil heating elements can weld closed in the ON position, causing the element to run continuously. This is the most common cause of F2.
- Shorted temperature sensor – A shorted RTD sensor can send a false low-temperature reading, causing the control board to continuously power the heating elements.
- Faulty control board – The control board may fail to send the shutoff signal to the heating element relay.
How to Troubleshoot the F2 Error Code
- Turn off the circuit breaker immediately – If the F2 code appears and the oven feels excessively hot, cut power at the breaker for safety.
- Allow the oven to cool completely – Before any inspection, ensure the oven is at room temperature.
- Reset and monitor – After cooling, restore power and run the oven at a moderate temperature (350°F). If temperature climbs uncontrollably, there is a relay or sensor issue.
