# GE oven error code F1 120 Volt

### What F1 120 Volt means, in the maker’s own words

Open thermal sensor on a 120 Volt Advantium. Advantium has its own table, separate from both the range and the microwave lists, because it is a third kind of oven — it cooks with halogen light and microwave energy together.

### Where this code actually appears

On the control panel, and usually with a sound. GE describes their refrigerator codes as flashing green on the display and typically accompanied by a beeping, and the range, microwave and dishwasher tables all describe codes you can read from the front of the appliance. That is the opposite of some makes, where the number is written into a hidden log and never shown — here, if something is wrong, the appliance generally tells you. Photograph what it says before cutting the power, because a reset erases it and the code is most of the diagnosis.

### Which machines this one applies to

120 Volt Advantium only. GE says plainly on their own range and oven table that they cannot list every code for every model past and present, so a code missing from their table is not proof that your appliance cannot raise it — and a code in it is not proof that yours can. The model number settles it.

### What to do about it

- GE’s clearing sequence: press CLEAR/OFF or CANCEL, then program the control again.
- If the code appears again, disconnect power to the oven for a minute or two, restore it, and program the cooking function again.
- If it survives that, it is a service call.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [diagnostic visit](/services/diagnostic-visit/), and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 306-2503](tel:+13053062503) and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
