# Whirlpool wall oven showing F5 E0

F5 E0 tells you the Whirlpool control has found something wrong in the door circuit: the latch assembly, the switch that senses the door, or the wiring to them.

## What F5 E0 actually means.

F5 E0 tells you the Whirlpool control has found something wrong in the door circuit: the latch assembly, the switch that senses the door, or the wiring to them. Because self-clean depends on that latch, the code often turns up around a cleaning cycle.

What to do when F5 E0 shows on the oven

### Kind of code Door and lock

The motorized lock did not reach the position the control asked for, or its switch reported the wrong one. Most often this shows during or after self-clean; the latch, its switches and the door's alignment are checked before the lock motor is replaced.

### Usually leads to Door lock and self-clean repair

A door that stays locked after self-clean, a cycle that will not start or stops early, traced to the lock motor, its switches or the cleaning heat.

### Shows up as Oven Door Won't Unlock

The door stays latched after a self-clean or a steam clean, or it locked during normal baking and will not release.

### Make Whirlpool

## Questions about F5 E0.

### Can I clear F5 E0 myself?

Make sure nothing is caught in the door and that it closes fully. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My Whirlpool shows F5 E0 and the door is locked. How do I get it open?

Let the oven cool completely, then try a one-minute breaker reset, which can release the latch. If the door still stays shut, leave it for a technician rather than prying it.

### Can I cook while F5 E0 is on my Whirlpool display?

Often the control will not start a cycle while the door circuit looks wrong. Even if it does, a latch that reports the wrong position should be checked before the next self-clean.
