KitchenAid range error codes
KitchenAid range codes as KitchenAid Product Help lists them, each with its meaning and the first safe check.
KitchenAid ranges, particularly the true-convection and pro-style models, report faults with an F code and a number or with a message, and the code names the oven function that failed: the temperature sensor, the convection fan, the door lock or the electronic control. This page lists the codes KitchenAid documents, each with its meaning and the first check, so you can separate a message that clears itself from a fault that needs a technician.
KitchenAid range code 1D11, 1D12, 1D21, 1D22: meaning and exact next steps
1D11, 1D12, 1D21, 1D22 means the oven is running too hot in Bake, Broil or Clean, or the sensor reports it is

Open recordKitchenAid range codes: oven faults and the messages that are not faults
Write down the display exactly and find the model number on the frame behind the oven door or the storage drawer. Convection models carry an extra fan and element, so codes for a convection circuit exist on those and not on a conventional oven, and the same code number can differ between generations.
Cool the oven and cycle the power at the breaker for a minute before anything else. For a convection code, listen for the fan and check that nothing is touching it; for a sensor code, check that the probe inside the oven is not touching the wall; for a lock code, let the lock finish its travel and do not force the door.
A KitchenAid range is worth repairing properly: a sensor, a fan motor or a lock is a modest part. Stop for gas smell, sparking or any need to work at the panel with the range connected.
On KitchenAid ranges the codes that matter are the ones that name sensors and fans. 3D11 and its relatives (F3 E0 to F3 E3, F1-1 to F1-3) mean the oven temperature sensor is open, shorted or out of range; unplug the range and look at the sensor wiring, and measure it before you replace it. 1D11 means the oven is running too hot in Bake, Broil or Clean, and the check starts with a full cool-down and the sensor wiring. 4D41 and Cooling Fan Speed mean the oven cooling fan is slow or blocked, which on a convection model is a common call. Probe and Insert Probe mean the control cannot read the meat probe, which is usually a probe not pushed fully into its jack.
Pro-style KitchenAid ranges have more going on: multiple burners, a convection fan, a warming drawer on some models and a larger control. A code on a dual-fuel range can belong to the gas side or the electric oven, so write down whether the oven or the cooktop was in use. The model number, which starts the same way for a family of ranges, is the fastest way for a KitchenAid technician to know which control board your range has.
Why does my KitchenAid oven show a code only in convection mode?
Convection models have an extra fan and element with their own codes; a code that appears only in convection points at that circuit.
Where is the model number on a KitchenAid range?
On the frame behind the oven door or on the frame of the storage drawer.
Why does a code show only in convection on my KitchenAid range?
Convection models add a fan and heater with their own circuits, so a code that appears only in convection points there.
What should I check before I replace the temperature sensor?
Unplug the range and look at the sensor wiring, check the probe is not touching the oven wall, and measure it; replace it only if it is out of range.
