Shorted keypad (touchpad)

Turn off the oven at the breaker for 3 minutes, then restore power
If error appears only with specific buttons, the touchpad membrane has a short in that area
Disconnect the ribbon cable to the touchpad — if the error stops, the touchpad is confirmed faulty
Clean grease thoroughly from the control panel area before installing replacement
Pro Diagnostic Tip
F2E0 is a shorted-touchpad fault — a membrane key is stuck closed and the board reads a phantom press, which is a different failure from F1E0 (corrupted board EEPROM memory). On KitchenAid wall ovens and ranges it commonly triggers during or after self-clean, when extreme heat warps the glass touchpad overlay; if the error only shows up around a self-clean it is the overlay delaminating, so replace the touchpad before condemning the more expensive control board. Disconnecting the touchpad ribbon and watching the error vanish confirms the overlay every time.
