Possible Causes
Stuck keypad, Firmware glitch in control board, Electrical noise or surge
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: If the oven is heating uncontrollably, turn off the breaker immediately.
- Control lock: Verify that the control lock feature is not engaged. On many LG models, press and hold the designated lock key (often "Lock" or a key with a padlock icon) for 3–5 seconds to toggle.
- Power cycle: Turn the breaker OFF for 5–10 minutes, then ON. This can clear software faults.
- Check keypad: Press each button to ensure none are stuck or unresponsive. If some keys do not work, the touchpad may be failing.
- Replace control assembly: If F99 persists and the keypad appears functional, replace the control board or complete control panel assembly as specified for your model.
