Kenmore ovens,
specifically.
Kenmore wall ovens were sold under model numbers whose first three digits, such as 665 or 790, identify the product family, and the error-code lists differ by that prefix. The same code can mean different things on two Kenmore ovens, so the rating label is the first thing to read.

All oven typesWhat is particular
to Kenmore.
Kenmore and Kenmore Elite wall ovens span self-cleaning and manual-cleaning models; the three-digit prefix of the model number ties each one to its own parts and code tables. Knowing that prefix before a visit means the right parts list is checked.
The model prefix decides the code list
Kenmore's parts site publishes separate code tables for 665 wall ovens and for 790 manual-clean wall ovens. F1, for example, is a control problem on a 665 but a sensor-or-board problem on a 790.
Overheat codes on 665 models
The 665 table has two overheat codes: F3/E2 for more than 575°F in Bake and F3/E3 for more than 950°F in self-clean. Either one means the oven should stay switched off until it is checked.
Door and latch are two separate signals
On 665 ovens F5/E0 appears when the door switch says open while the latch says locked. Checking whether the oven light follows the door is a quick clue about the switch.
Manual-clean 790 models have a short list
The 790 manual-cleaning wall ovens document only a couple of codes, both around the temperature sensor and control board, since there is no self-clean latch to report on.
Parts
Sensors, latches and elements for common Kenmore wall oven families are usually still available once the full model number is known. Older control boards can be harder to find.
Repair or replace
A sensor, latch or element repair on a Kenmore wall oven is usually worth it. If a long-discontinued control board is the problem, comparing against a new built-in oven is reasonable.
