Whirlpool ties F25 to the power supply feeding the cooktop. Because a built-in electric cooktop is hard-wired to its own circuit, a loose supply connection, a failing breaker or low voltage can all show up this way. Whirlpool cooktop display What to do when F25 shows on the cooktop ### Kind of code Boards and communication The touch board and the power board under the glass lost track of each other, or one failed its own start-up check. A power dip, a ribbon or harness pulled loose when the top was fitted, or moisture from a boil-over is ruled out before a board is replaced, and a cooktop that keeps heating while this code shows is switched off at the breaker. ### Usually leads to Touch control repair Glass touch keys and sliders that ignore a finger, start zones by themselves or stay locked, traced to the keys, the control board or the lock setting. ### Shows up as Cooktop Tripping Breaker The circuit breaker for the cooktop trips as a burner or zone switches on, at one particular setting, or a few minutes into cooking. ### Make Whirlpool A major US appliance maker whose built-in cooktops are found in a great many homes. ### Source Whirlpool Product Help: F25, electric cooktop Whirlpool electric and induction cooktops.

Switch the cooktop's breaker off for one minute, then back on. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why would Whirlpool send me to an electrician for F25? Its page links F25 to the power supplied to the cooktop, and that wiring lives in the house, not in the appliance. An electrician checks the circuit; a cooktop technician checks the appliance side. ### Could F25 show up after a power outage? It can follow a supply problem. Reset the breaker for one minute; if the code clears and stays gone, you can keep cooking. ### Could the breaker itself be behind F25 on my Whirlpool cooktop? It could, because Whirlpool ties F25 to the power supplied to the cooktop and the breaker is part of that supply. If a one-minute reset does not keep the code away, have a qualified electrician check the circuit before any cooktop part is replaced. --- **[Read on the site: Whirlpool cooktop showing F25 | CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/error-codes/whirlpool-f25/)** **[Book a visit with CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/schedule/)**
