Possible Causes

Low remote battery, Excessive distance between remote and receiver, Metal cabinet shielding RF signal, Faulty antenna in receiver

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: For signal issues, you usually do not need to power off the unit, but avoid running the disposal while working under the sink.

  • Install fresh batteries: Replace the remote batteries even if they seem partially functional.
  • Reduce distance and obstacles: Test the remote closer to the sink, with cabinet doors open. If it works reliably only when close, consider relocating the receiver or using a wired switch instead.
  • Reposition receiver: Mount the Franke receiver module away from large metal pipes or panels that can block RF signals.
  • Inspect antenna: If the receiver has an external antenna wire, ensure it is intact and not pinched or broken.
  • Replace RF kit if needed: Persistent F2 errors may require replacement of the Franke RF remote kit.
