How to Reset a Samsung Oven
Reset at the breaker. SE keypad codes sometimes clear after the keypad dries out.
Reset Steps
- 1
Switch the range's breaker off for 60 seconds (ranges are 240V hardwired or plugged behind the unit — the breaker is the practical option).
- 2
Restore power and set the clock.
- 3
Run a bake test at 350°F for 20 minutes. If the code returns, follow the code's fix guide.
💡 Good to know: Codes that appear only during self-clean usually mean the door latch or thermal protection tripped — avoid self-clean until fixed.
If the Code Comes Back
A code that returns after a reset means the underlying fault is still present. Look up your exact code for its causes and step-by-step fix:
E-08 Oven temperature sensor open circuit E-09 Oven temperature sensor short circuit SE Keypad/touchpad short — stuck button on control panel E-0A Oven overheating — temperature above safe limit NF No flame detected — gas ignition failure (gas range models) E-3 Door lock motor failure — self-clean door latch issue E-43 Power relay failure on main control board
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my Samsung range show SE after cleaning the control panel? +
Moisture wicking into the membrane keypad shorts the key matrix. Power off at the breaker, let it dry several hours, and reset. If SE persists, the keypad membrane needs replacement.
