F2 E0F2 E0 questions

Is F2 E0 related to F1 E0?

Both involve the user interface, control and wiring in the published list. F1 E0 says touchpad, while F2 E0 says interface or keypad, and our repair approach is much the same. Both name the interface and control, though the wording differs slightly, and the testing is much the same.

Can I use the oven by remote?

No. If the keypad is not working, the oven cannot be started reliably. Not reliably, because the oven cannot be set up or started without the keypad responding.

Is a keypad repair expensive?

It depends on the model. You get the price in writing before work. Many keypad repairs are modest, and the written quote shows what the panel itself costs.
