AEG oven error codes
87 codes that AEG publishes for its ovens, each with what it means, the likely cause, what you can safely check and when to call a technician. Tap your code:
Switch off and unplug before checking. Anything electrical, anything to do with gas, and any water leak at the mains: call a technician. Codes that need one are marked Technician.
Read this first
AEG ovens show F codes for faults (F102, F111), C codes when a pyrolytic clean cannot start, and F6xx codes for Wi-Fi on connected ovens. Every code below is on AEG UK’s own support site. Electrolux and Zanussi ovens come from the same group and often share codes, but the sources here are AEG’s: check your own manual. AEG says most F codes need an engineer, and lists more than 70 of them; a mains reset is the one thing it suggests trying first.
F102 Door lock
- What it means
- The door is not fully closed, or the door lock may be defective.
- Likely cause
- A door left slightly open, or a problem with the electronics.
- What you can safely check
Switch off and unplug before checking.
- Close the door fully.
- Isolate the oven for a few minutes and switch it back on — or check the house fuse or the safety switch in the fuse box and switch it back on if you can.
- When to call a technician
- If F102 shows again, call a technician (AEG customer care). If the fuse or safety switch will not stay on, AEG says to consult a qualified electrician.

F1 Door will not lock for pyrolytic cleaning, or an electronic fault
- What it means
- On a pyrolytic oven: the door cannot close (lock) because the pyrolytic function is on. On an oven without pyrolytic cleaning: possibly an electronic fault.
- Likely cause
- Pyrolytic ovens: the top part of the door is loose or not fitted properly — often after the door was cleaned or taken off.
- What you can safely check
Switch off and unplug before checking.
- Pyrolytic ovens: check the top part of the door is intact and secured to the door.
- If the door was recently removed, refit it as the manual shows.
- When to call a technician
- If that does not fix it — and always on an oven without pyrolytic cleaning — call a technician (an AEG authorised service centre).

F111 F11 F129 Food probe (roasting thermometer)
- What it means
- The food probe is faulty or not connected correctly. AEG says some models show it as F11 or F129.
- Likely cause
- A plug not fully in the probe socket, or a damaged probe (wires, bent contacts, wear).
- What you can safely check
Switch off and unplug before checking.
- Remove the food probe and plug it back in, fully into the socket.
- Check the probe for damaged wires or bent contacts; a damaged probe should be replaced.
- Switch the oven off at the mains for about 30 seconds, then back on.
- When to call a technician
- If the code stays with the probe reconnected or replaced, call a technician: the socket, wiring or electronics need checking.

C1 Telescopic rails in during pyrolytic cleaning
- What it means
- The pyrolytic clean was started with the telescopic rails still in the oven.

F215 Software problem (connected ovens)
F215 is also on AEG’s list of F codes that need a service call-out.

- What you can safely check
Switch off and unplug before checking.
- If it shows only in the app: reinstall the latest app and reconnect the oven.

- When to call a technician
- If that does not work, call a technician (AEG service) and give the code.

F601 F604 Wi-Fi signal problem or first connection failed
- What it means
- F601: there is a problem with the Wi-Fi signal. F604: the first connection to Wi-Fi failed.
- Likely cause

Switch off and unplug before checking.
- Check your network; for F604 turn the oven off and on and try again.

A code that is not listed here
AEG’s support site says an F code not covered here (for example F113 or F908) needs a specialist engineer. You can switch the oven off at the mains and back on after 30 seconds to see if that clears it. If it does not, book an engineer and give them the code. For a C code or any other code, the troubleshooting section of your manual is the next place to look.
We list only codes the source below states. If your code is not here, it may belong to a model the source does not cover: your model’s manual is the authority.
