Kenmore Microwave F2 Error Code — Shorted Keypad

Kenmore Microwave

High Severity
Warning: If your Kenmore appliance displays the F2 error code and you are unsure how to proceed, turn off the appliance and contact a qualified technician. Some errors require professional repair to avoid further damage or safety risks.

The F2 error code on a Kenmore microwave indicates a shorted or stuck key on the membrane keypad. The control board has detected a key that is continuously pressed or a short circuit in the keypad matrix.

Causes

  • Grease or moisture under the keypad membrane
  • Damaged keypad membrane from physical impact
  • Age-related delamination of keypad layers

What To Do

  1. Clean the keypad surface with a damp cloth to remove grease and food residue.
  2. Allow to dry completely, then power on and test.
  3. If F2 returns, the keypad membrane requires professional replacement — this is a common Kenmore OTR microwave repair.
