GE Appliance Error Codes

4 GE codes: what each means in one line, whether it is an owner fix, and the manufacturer source. Codes vary by model. Your owner's manual and model sticker are the final word.

Quick facts

GE range / oven codes

Safety: Do not remove panels or work on wiring. A breaker reset is the only power step an owner should do. On a gas range, if you smell gas, do not switch anything on or off; leave and call your gas company from outside.
