Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from LG's own guidance for F9 on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Press CLEAR/OFF and restart the cooking mode.

02

If the code reappears, switch the breaker off for 30 seconds.

03

On a gas or dual-fuel range, do not open panels; book a visit if F9 persists.

Still there?

It usually turns into bake and broil elements. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

F9 is not a sensor code; sensor problems show as F1, F2, F4 or F5.

Questions
about F9.

Can I clear F9 myself?
Press CLEAR/OFF and restart the cooking mode. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What part usually causes F9 on an LG range?
LG's list does not name a part, only that the oven is not heating properly. A technician tests the heating circuit, which on a gas or dual-fuel model includes gas parts you should not open yourself.
Can a power reset really fix F9 on my LG range?
Sometimes the code was a one-off, and LG lists the reset first for that reason. If the oven still heats slowly afterward, the code will return.

Still showing F9?

Book with the code exactly as it appears, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or scorching — with a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
