KitchenAid Wall Oven Code 1c31: Oven control or wiring

What 1c31 means

The lower-case code 1c31 on KitchenAid wall ovens and combination wall ovens points to the oven control or the wiring associated with it. The control is the board that runs temperature and cycle logic, so a problem here can stop all cooking. You will see 1c31 on the display, and the oven may refuse to heat. It often appears in the middle of a cycle or at start-up.

Common causes of 1c31

Wiring to the oven control that is loose or damaged

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press Cancel and note the code. 2. Switch the breaker off for one minute and restore it. 3. Try a plain bake for a few minutes. 4. If 1c31 appears again, leave the oven off and call us. 5. Write down what the display shows.

! Why to stop there

The control carries mains voltage and sits behind a built-in panel.
A new control is a major cost, so we prove the diagnosis first.
The 30-day workmanship warranty covers the repair.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
