F1E0
Whirlpool oven error F1E0 usually means the oven temperature sensor is reading outside its expected range.
medium severity
F3E2
Whirlpool oven error F3E2 usually means the oven temperature sensor circuit is open or shorted.
medium severity
F9E0
Whirlpool oven error F9E0 usually means the range is not receiving the correct household power or polarity.
high severity
LOC
The control lock (also called child lock or control lockout) is active. All oven and cooktop controls are disabled until the lock is deactivated. This is a safety feature, not a fault — the range is operating as designed.
low severity
PF
The range has detected that power was interrupted — either from an outage, a tripped breaker, or the range being accidentally unplugged. PF is displayed to alert the user to reset the clock. This is an informational indicator, not a fault.
low severity
SAB
The oven is in Sabbath mode, a special operating mode that allows the oven to remain on at a constant temperature without the display changing, without beeping, and without the light activating when the door opens. All other controls and functions are disabled while Sabbath mode is active. This is an intentional feature, not a fault.
