Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power to the oven at the circuit breaker before removing any panels. Verify power is off with a non-contact voltage tester.
Steps to try:
- Power reset: Turn the breaker off for 5 minutes, then back on. If F0 returns quickly, the keypad or control is likely faulty.
- Inspect keypad ribbon: Remove the control panel trim (usually a few screws from the front or top). Gently pull the control panel forward and locate the flat ribbon cable from the keypad to the electronic oven control (EOC). Reseat the ribbon by unplugging and firmly reconnecting it.
- Check for moisture/contamination: Look for signs of liquid spills, steam damage, or corrosion on the keypad and connector. If present, the control panel assembly should be replaced.
- Replace keypad/control panel: If the error persists, order the correct GE Profile control panel/touchpad assembly using the full model number. Transfer any brackets or bezels from the old panel, reconnect the ribbon cable, and reassemble.
When to call a technician: If you are not comfortable removing the control panel or if the error persists after replacing the keypad, contact a qualified appliance technician.
