Quick answer
F06 on a Whirlpool range or wall oven: electronic 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 F06 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Mean
There may be a problem with the electronic control or wiring.
Whirlpool ranges and wall ovens use F06 to signal a control problem. The guide points to the electronic control, or the associated wiring.
Power reset steps
Switch the oven’s breaker to off, or unplug the appliance, and wait one minute.
Switch the power on again.
Check the display over the next minute for any sign of the code.

A returning F06 is the cue to get a technician involved.
