The following test will usually be sufficient to determine whether the electronic range control or the touchpad is defective when the display displays a fault code of F1: - Disconnect power to the range. - Gain access to the back of the ERC (electronic range control, or "clock"). - Unplug the touch pad ribbon connector from the ERC. This will be a flat wire about 1 ½" to 2" wide. - Make sure everything is clear and will not short out when power is turned back on. Replace any covers removed to gain access to the ERC. - Turn the power back on to the range. - Watch for the F-1 and listen for the beep. - If you get the F-1 and beep, replace the ERC (electronic range control, or "clock"). - If after approximately an hour you do not get the F-1 fault, replace the touch pad. ** NOTE ** Some models utilize an assembly that includes the both the touch pad and the clock control as one unit.  In this case the F1 fault code means a faulty ERC.
