Quick answer
F01 on a Whirlpool range or wall oven: oven temperature sensor, control or wiring may be at fault; a one-minute power reset is the manual's first step.
Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F01 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.
Mean
There may be a problem with the oven temperature sensor, control or wiring.
What F01 means
The troubleshooting guide says there may be a problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the associated wiring.
F01 is an oven error code that Whirlpool lists for ranges and wall ovens.
Power reset steps
Flip the breaker off for one minute; unplugging the oven for that minute works as well. Restore power at the breaker. Look at the display for a minute; the code should be gone. Last, check the operation of the oven. A returning F01 is the cue to get a technician involved.
