Note F20 and what mode the oven was in. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Does F20 on a BlueStar oven mean the board has to be replaced? Not necessarily. BlueStar names the board or its wiring, and a loose or damaged connection is checked before the board is condemned. ### Can I keep cooking in a BlueStar oven while F20 is on the screen? The code means the controls themselves are in question, so settings may not be carried out. Wait for a technician before relying on the oven. --- **[Read on the site: BlueStar BSDF oven showing F20 | OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/error-codes/bluestar-f20/)** **[Book a visit with OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/schedule/)**
