Turn the Temp knob to any setting, then back to Off, to clear the control. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### How do I find the code behind the amber lights on my KitchenAid commercial-style range? On a connected range, KitchenAid's app lists it under the service and support settings. Without the app, the technician reads it during the visit. ### Does amber blinking on a KitchenAid always need a repair? No. KitchenAid says a temporary problem clears with the knob routine and the oven then works normally. Only lights that return after a power reset call for service. --- **[Read on the site: KitchenAid commercial-style range blinking amber](https://rangerepair.center/error-codes/kitchenaid-amber-light/)** **[Book a visit with RangeRepair.center](https://rangerepair.center/schedule/)**
