Kenmore Microwave F6 Error Code — Communication Error

Kenmore Microwave

Medium Severity
Warning: If your Kenmore appliance displays the F6 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 F6 error code on a Kenmore microwave indicates a communication failure between the display/touch board and the main control board. These two boards must communicate continuously, and a failure of this link generates F6.

Causes

  • Loose or disconnected ribbon cable between the two boards
  • Failed display board
  • Failed main control board

What To Do

  1. Power cycle the microwave (unplug for 5 minutes).
  2. If F6 clears, it was a transient communication glitch.
  3. If F6 returns, a technician will need to test both boards and the interconnecting cable.
