Error code F2
Appliance Cooktop
Quick answer

F2 means the surface cooking area of an electric or radiant Whirlpool cooktop is too hot; it disappears when the area cools.

Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F2 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

F2 means the surface cooking area is too hot and clears when it has cooled.

F2 on a Whirlpool electric or radiant cooktop says the surface cooking area is too hot.

What to do

  1. Take the pans off the surface cooking area.
  2. Turn the surface cooking area off and let it cool.
  3. F2 disappears once the area has cooled.

If you switch the surface cooking area back on and F2 appears again, the cooktop is still too hot, so repeat the cooling.

If it does not clear

The help also lists a power reset. Turn off the circuit breaker (or unplug the cooktop) for one minute, restore power, and see whether the code returns.
