Understanding F04
F04 is listed for wall ovens, with the electronic oven control named as the place the problem may be. The associated wiring is named as well. Until the oven is looked at, this is a possibility only.
Steps to follow
Switch off the breaker or breakers for the oven and wait a minute.
Switch them back on.
Watch the screen for one minute in case the code repeats.
Confirm the oven works.
If F04 is displayed again afterward, a technician should see the oven.
F05: is about the door latch and door switch instead
