Likely causes of “Amana range code 1C31, 1C32, 1C4C, 1C6C, 1C7C, 1C81, 1C82, 1C8C, F03”, and how to tell them apart
- 1
The electronic oven control reported an internal fault
What separates it The display shows a code and the oven stops
How to confirm Reset the power and see whether the code returns at once
- 2
A power glitch after a storm or cut
What separates it The code appeared after the power came back
How to confirm Note whether the power flickered
- 3
Moisture or heat near the control
What separates it The control panel is damp or very hot
How to confirm Let the range cool and dry
- 4
A failing control board
What separates it The code returns right after every reset
How to confirm A technician tests the board
- 5
An old F-code that means the same fault
What separates it An earlier code style shows
How to confirm The same checks apply
Before you touch a setting
Record this first — changing settings destroys the evidence
- The exact code shown
- Whether the power flickered before it
- Whether it returns right after a reset
- The model number

0 of 8 completedWhat to do first
ReversibleSwitch the range off at the breaker for three minutes.
Correct only the documented fault domain
ReversibleRestore power and watch for the code; if it returns immediately, the control board is the part to test. A power reset is the whole of what Amana publishes for this code: remove power for 1 minute, restore it, and watch whether the code returns.
Turn the power off
ReversibleAt the breaker, for three minutes.
Turn it back on
ReversibleAnd watch for a minute.
Try a simple bake
ReversibleSee whether the oven accepts a setting.
Look for moisture
ReversibleCheck that the panel is dry and cool.
Write down the code
ReversibleWith the model number.
Book service if it returns
ReversibleThe control is the likely part.
Model-specific
What is true of this model and not of its siblings
- Part involved
- The electronic oven control.
- Reset
- Power off for three minutes.
Stop boundary
When this stops being a self-service repair
- !If the code returns straight after the reset, book Amana service with the model number and the code
- !Do not replace the control board without a diagnosis
- !Keep the oven off while it shows a control fault

Common questions
What does 1C31, 1C32, 1C4C, 1C6C, 1C7C, 1C81, 1C82, 1C8C, F03, F04, F06, F1 E0, F1 E1, F1 E2, F1 E5, F1 E7, F1 E9, F1-7, F1-9, F1-E, 4D31, 4D32, 3D51 mean on a Amana range?+
the electronic oven control has reported an internal fault
What does the control fault code mean on an Amana range?+
The electronic oven control reported an internal fault.
Is the older control code in the same family?+
Yes, F1-9 is an older code for the same family.
Will a reset fix it?+
Only if the fault was a glitch.
Do I need a new control?+
Only if the code comes straight back.
How does the control decide to show a fault?+
The control checks itself and its sensors at power-up and during a cycle, and an internal reading outside its limits produces the code.
What can I check myself?+
Whether the power flickered, whether the panel is damp and whether the code returns after a three-minute power-off.
What is the repair?+
Usually replacing the electronic oven control, which is a plug-in board on many ranges; a technician confirms it first.
Will the range work in the meantime?+
The cooktop usually does; the oven may refuse to start.
