Possible Causes

Failed main control board (CCU), shorted low-voltage control circuit, power surge damage, internal relay failure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the JennAir combo from the wall outlet or switch off the dedicated breaker before any inspection. Do not work on live circuits.

  • Power reset: Disconnect power for 5 minutes, then restore power and try a short cycle. Sometimes the control locks up after a surge.
  • Check outlet and supply: Verify the outlet has 120V (or local spec) using a meter, and that the plug is fully seated. Inspect the power cord for burns or cuts.
  • Inspect control board connections: Remove the top or rear access panel (per JennAir service manual). Locate the main control board (CCU). Reseat all harness connectors one at a time, ensuring they are fully latched and free of corrosion or burnt pins.
  • Look for visible board damage: Check for burnt spots, bulging capacitors, or melted solder joints. Any visible damage usually means the board must be replaced.
  • Replace the CCU if needed: If F01 returns immediately and wiring is sound, replace the main control board with the correct JennAir part number. Transfer each connector to the new board one at a time to avoid miswiring.

When to call a technician: If you are not comfortable testing live voltage or replacing electronic boards, contact a qualified appliance technician.
