Error codeF4 E7
ApplianceWall Oven
Where F4 E7 points
This code names three suspects: the Microwave Meat Probe, the Meat Probe Receptacle and the wiring between them. It is a wall oven message and no model range is attached to it.
Look at the probe first
Make sure the Microwave Meat Probe sits firmly in the Microwave Meat Probe Receptacle.
Do not substitute the Oven Meat Probe in the microwave; the two probes have different resistance values.
Then reset the power
Switch the circuit breaker(s) off and let a full minute pass.
Switch them on again so the oven energizes.
Watch the display through the first minute to see that the code stays away.
Last, verify the oven operates.
Should the code return after the one-minute watch, arrange a technician visit.
Easily mixed-up codes
See F4 E6 for the microwave wave guide temperature sensor and F4 E8 for the microwave inverter.
