The GE Oven Error Code F8 typically indicates a problem with the oven’s control board or key panel. This error code is often associated with a malfunction in the communication between the control board and the key panel. Here’s how to address the F8 error code on your GE oven:
- Power Cycle the Oven:
- Turn off the oven by unplugging it or switching off the circuit breaker.
- Wait for a few minutes to allow the control board to reset.

- Examine the control board for loose connections or burnt areas.
- If you find issues with the key panel or control board, they may need to be replaced.
- Test the Control Board:
- If the key panel appears to be in good condition, the problem may lie with the control board.
