I just discovered that the F1 error code
was due to ambient air temerature too low.
Warmed up the EOC and it worked fine.

After a wasted service call, I replaced a series of parts, including the control unit and two temperature probes. Each part replacement was very simple and seemed to fix the problem, but inevitably the code would reappear, sometimes in hours or days, sometimes in a couple months. Other than the error code, the oven and stove top worked fine, so we were unwilling to toss it out and buy a new one. So, in desperation, I simply moved the oven away from the wall about 1-1/2" to ensure that heat did not build up in the top of the stove where the controls are located. We have not had a single F1 error in more than 6 months. I am convinced that this is the source of the continuing
problem we experienced and that the transient malfunctioning of part(s) was due to heat buildup.
