LG Range (Gas) F2 error code
The F2 error means your LG range detected a problem with the upper oven thermistor. This is similar to the F1 error but represents a different thermistor fault condition in the upper oven. Without an accurate temperature reading the oven cannot regulate heat safely and stops the function. A reset clears it in some cases but if F2 keeps returning the thermistor will need to be inspected and replaced by a technician.
Common causes
- Upper oven thermistor has malfunctioned or failed
- Wiring connection to the upper oven thermistor is loose or damaged
- Temporary electronic glitch causing a false thermistor reading
