Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power at the breaker. Do not attempt to operate the oven with a suspected control board fault.
Steps to try:
- Power cycle: Turn off power for 10–15 minutes to fully discharge the control. Restore power and check if F5 returns.
- Inspect board: Access the EOC behind the control panel. Look for burnt spots, cracked solder joints, or swollen components.
- Check wiring: Verify that all harness connectors to the EOC are fully seated and not heat-damaged.
- Replace EOC: If F5 persists and no external wiring issues are found, replace the electronic oven control with a BlueStar-compatible part. Transfer each wire one at a time from old to new board.
When to stop: If you see extensive heat damage or are unsure about wiring, contact a qualified technician.
