What F60 means
F60 names the touchpad or the wiring behind it. Clean and dry the panel and try one breaker reset; a code that survives both means the touchpad or its cable needs a technician.
Error codes
Reference| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| F60 | There may be a problem with the User Interface (Touchpad), or the associated wiring. |
What you observe
- A key acts without being touched — A touchpad fault to report; switch off at the breaker.
- The display shows the code at power-up — The touchpad fails its start-up check.
- It started after a spill near the controls — Moisture can reach the touchpad edge.
- NEAR MISS: the panel has a pan or spill on it — Pressure on the panel is a different code; clear it first.
What usually sets this code
- Touchpad failed — Most likely: the touchpad itself, once a reset and a clean panel have been tried.
- Ribbon or harness connection — Second: the cable from the touchpad loosens or corrodes.
- Moisture or residue — Third: water or residue confusing the touchpad.
- Power event — Least likely to persist: a surge that a reset clears.
Check in this order
- Breaker reset — Restarts the touchpad cleanly.
- Test each key — Dead, slow or self-pressing keys are worth noting.
- Recall any spill or recent work — Spills and service point at the edge seal or the cable.
- Technician checks the touchpad and cable — Under the glass, with the power off.
Clearing the code, then checking
- Breaker reset — Switch the breaker off for a minute, then on.
About 2 min
- Key map — Press each key once and write down any that fail or act alone.
Tools: notepad or phoneAbout 3 min
- Leave it off after a spill — If liquid reached the controls, leave the breaker off for an hour before the reset.
About 60 min
- STOP before testing anything with a meter — Live-voltage checks and part tests are where the owner side of this code ends.
Safety for this cooktop
Safety
Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before removing any panel. A capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off. On a cooktop that usually means the breaker, because the unit is wired into a junction box under the counter. Do not use a cooktop with cracked glass.
When to call a technician
Book a technician once a clean panel and a reset leave the code in place, and switch off at the breaker if any key presses itself. The touchpad and its cable are replaced from below the glass.

Generalized information
This is generalized information: it reads F60 the way Amana documents it for Amana electric and induction cooktops with touch controls. It does not apply to Amana gas cooktops, Amana ranges, whose surface codes are listed with the oven codes, or sister brands on the same platform, whose lists can read differently. No model-specific page for F60 exists yet; when one does, it is the more specific answer for that model line.
