What F23
actually means.
F23 on a Miele oven means the Self Clean program never reached its temperature. Miele points to heavy leftover soiling in the cavity as a possible cause.

What to do when F23 shows on the ovenKind of codeHeating
The control asked for heat and the cavity did not warm the way it expected. A bake or broil element that has opened or blistered is the usual answer; the wiring to it and the relay that switches it are checked before a board is blamed.
