Error code F2 E1 key pad error; had repair man come look and see what was wrong he said that the key pad is broke, i could only get in white, biscuit and almond, my oven is black. Can i get a black or stainless steel one for Mode#KEMS307GBLO. Any help will be appreciated.
It does look like the black panel is obsolete.
With luck perhaps another person will know where to get one.
If the repair person did nothing but look at the unit and tell you what the error code means then I woyuld try the following.
F2E1 is a keypad not connected so could be just a bad connection.
I would try the following first.
-
Unplug the unit for 5 minutes or so to see if it will reset.
-
Connector Cleaning / Checking
Unplug the unit
Open it up
Remove the ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board at the control board.
Clean the edge connector.
If it is the type where there is not a connector just the insulation is removed, it can be cleaned with a pencil eraser. Do not use an ink eraser as it is too abrasive.
Check the tracks in the ribbon cable for hairline cracks. A magnifying glass helps here.
Would not hurt to clean the connector on the board. Use electronics contact cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush. Be gentle and do not reconnect till all the solvent evaporates.
Reconnect everything and give it a try.
