# LG range showing F1

LG lists F1 and F2 as upper oven thermistor errors.

## What F1 actually means.

LG lists F1 and F2 as upper oven thermistor errors. The thermistor is the probe that tells the control how hot the oven is, so the control cannot regulate heat without it.

LG range display · also shown as F2

What to do when F1 shows on the range

### Kind of code Temperature sensor

The oven sensor sent a reading the control would not accept, or one that climbed well past the setting. A loose plug or a sensor that has drifted is ruled out before the control board, and a temperature that keeps rising means the range is switched off at the breaker first.

### Usually leads to Temperature sensor and thermostat repair

A range oven that bakes hot, bakes slow, takes forever to preheat or posts a sensor code, traced to the sensor probe, the thermostat or the calibration.

### Shows up as Range Oven Not Heating

The burners or elements on top work, but the oven below stays cold, heats only a little, or never finishes preheating.

### Make LG

### Source LG Help Library "LG Range - Error Codes List" (Wayback copy, 23 Jun 2025)

F1 comes from LG's range code list; the upper and lower split matters on double-oven models such as the LTGL6937F.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from LG's own guidance for F1 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Press CLEAR/OFF and try the same function again.

02

If F1 or F2 returns, switch the breaker off for 30 seconds and back on.

03

Book a visit if the code stays; the sensor is checked with a meter.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [temperature sensor and thermostat repair](https://rangerepair.center/services/temperature-sensor-and-thermostat-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

F1 is not about the lower oven of a double-oven range; that one is F4 or F5.

## What you may notice with it.

The range problems F1 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the range before anyone is booked.

### 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.

LG builds this

### 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.

LG builds this

### 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.

## Questions about F1.

### Can I clear F1 myself?

Press CLEAR/OFF and try the same function again. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My LG range has only one oven. Can it still show F1?

Yes. LG labels F1 for the upper oven, and on a single-oven range that is the only oven. The steps are the same.

### Why does F1 appear only after my LG oven has been on a while?

A thermistor or its connector can fail only when it warms up. A reset may clear the code for a while, but a technician needs to test the sensor hot.
