Quick answer
F01, F02, F1-1, F1-2, F1-3, F1-H, F1-L, F1, F2 and F3-1 all name the oven temperature sensor, control or wiring.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so F01 / F02 / F1-1 / F1-2 ... may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
A possible fault in the oven temperature sensor, the control or the wiring between them.
One explanation for ten codes
Whichever of these ten codes your KitchenAid range displays, the manufacturer’s sentence is identical: the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the wiring may have a problem.
Which codes are included
Two-digit: F01 and F02.
Hyphenated: F1-1, F1-2, F1-3, F1-H, F1-L and F3-1.
Short: F1 and F2.
The range page lists the hyphenated and short ones. F01 and F02 show up on the wall oven page too, with matching wording.
Background on the three parts
This is general explanation rather than additional source detail. The temperature sensor reports how hot the oven is. The control uses that report to decide when the heating elements run. Wiring carries the signal across. KitchenAid does not rank the three or say which one fails for any given code.
The reset KitchenAid lists
Find the range’s breaker in the home panel and switch it off for 60 seconds.
Flip it back on.
Stay alert for one more minute in case the code reappears.
Run the oven as usual to confirm it responds.
When the code does not leave
No further owner steps are published. If the code comes back, the sensor, control or wiring needs a technician’s inspection; testing a sensor and tracing wires are not homeowner tasks.
Related sensor and control codes
F3E0: the Ranges page names the same three parts, whereas the commercial-style pages stop at reset steps.
F03 / F04: the electronic oven control is named, not the sensor.
Range service in Los Angeles

Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
