What F5
actually means.
F5 points at the door latch system on a JennAir range: the latch assembly, the switches that tell the control where the latch is, or the wiring to them. Self-clean depends on that latch, so F5 often blocks a clean cycle.

What to do when F5 shows on the rangeKind of codeDoor and lock
The oven door lock did not move to where the control sent it, or its switch reported the wrong position. It shows up most around self-clean; the latch, its switches, the hinges and how squarely the door closes are looked at before the lock motor is changed.
Usually leads toDoor hinge, gasket and lock repair
An oven door that will not close, sits crooked, leaks heat, or stays locked after self-clean, traced to the hinges, the gasket, the glass or the lock.
Shows up asRange Self-Clean Problems
The self-clean cycle will not start, stops partway, leaves the door locked, smokes heavily, or leaves the oven dead afterward.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for F5 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the breaker off for one minute and back on, then watch for the code for another minute.
If F5 returns, do not run self-clean and book a visit.
Still there?
It usually turns into door hinge, gasket and lock repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
F5 does not mean the door is warped or the gasket is loose; it concerns the latch and the switches that watch it.

Gas range
Open flames on top and a gas-fired oven below, all fed by one supply line behind the range and lit by igniters rather than a match.
Electric range
Coil elements or radiant elements under a smooth glass top, with an electric oven below, all running on a dedicated 240-volt circuit.
Dual-fuel range
Gas burners on top and an electric oven below, the combination most professional-style ranges use, needing both a gas line and a 240-volt circuit.
In JennAir's own words
There may be a problem with the Oven Door Latch Assembly, Door Latch Switches, or the associated wiring.
