What F7
actually means.
F7 on a Wolf induction cooktop means the temperature of the electronics passed 158°F during use. Wolf points first at the installation and at ventilation around the cooktop, since trapped heat below the counter is the usual cause.

What to do when F7 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTemperature and overheat sensors
A sensor under the glass or on a board reported a reading the control rejected, or heat climbing past the safe limit — often after an empty pan was left on a zone. The zone is allowed to cool and a loose sensor plug is ruled out before the sensor, the coil assembly or the board is blamed. A top that keeps getting hotter is switched off at the breaker first.
Usually leads toInduction board and coil repair
Induction zones that stop sensing pans, cut out, buzz or show codes, traced to the power boards, the coils, their sensors and the links to the controls.
Shows up asCooktop Fan Runs Constantly
The cooling fan under an induction or touch-control cooktop keeps running long after cooking, or a downdraft blower will not shut off or retract.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Wolf's own guidance for F7 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Let the cooktop cool, then reset its breaker.
Check that the cutout and the cabinet below match the installation instructions, with nothing blocking the airflow.
Run the ventilation while cooking to cut heat build-up; book a visit if F7 returns.
Still there?
It usually turns into induction board and coil repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
F7 does not report a failed coil or a bad pan. It is a heat limit on the electronics.
