LG Range (Electric) F11 error code

Difficulty: Hard · Cost: $100–$350 · Duration: 5m

The F11 error means your LG range detected a communication failure between internal components — typically between the main control board and another part of the range such as the display board or a secondary control module. When this communication breaks down the range cannot operate normally and stops the current function. A reset clears it in some cases but if F11 keeps returning the control board or wiring will need to be inspected by a technician.

Common causes

  • Communication fault between the main control board and another internal component
  • Wiring harness between control components is loose or damaged
  • Main control board or display board has malfunctioned
  • Temporary electronic glitch causing a false communication error

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Press the CLEAR/OFF key to clear the error and try the original function again

  2. 2

    If F11 reappears turn off the circuit breaker for the range and wait 30 seconds

  3. 3

  4. 4

    If F11 persists after resetting the control board or wiring needs inspection by a qualified technician
