# Bosch error code E or F

### What this one means

The electronics have logged something they cannot describe more precisely.

### The other ways your machine may say it

The same condition is published under more than one label, because it has been carried across generations of this appliance:

- **E or F, D or E** — the same condition, on machines of different ages
- **A letter with a number after it** — how a model with no digital display says it. On that machine, the lights are the code

### What the code covers

A published cause names a circuit rather than a component, which is the single most useful thing to know before ordering a part. This one covers:

- Anything the appliance treats as an internal error

### What to try yourself

- Disconnect the appliance from the power supply
- Wait a couple of seconds and reconnect it
- Write down the exact code including every character before you do

### Then what

The catch-all. What makes it useful is the number after the letter, so photograph it — the manufacturer asks for the exact code when you call, and so do we.

This code is published for cooktops & rangetops and ranges. [The full list of codes](https://esbosch.djwp.xyz/error-codes/) has the rest.
