The three suspects behind F4 E1
The thermistor
The appliance manager
The connected wiring
Which of these is at fault cannot be told from the display alone.
What you can try
Unplug the oven’s power at the panel by flipping its breaker or breakers off, and leave them that way for sixty seconds. Flip them on again and then stay alert for the next minute in case the error code shows up. Wrap up by running the oven to see that it works.
If the message keeps returning, ask for a technician visit.
