# Bosch error code E and a number

### What this one means

The oven has logged an error and is naming it with a letter and a number. It is a code the manufacturer publishes for this appliance, not one we have worked out — and it is decoded here rather than left as three characters on a display.

### 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 and a number, F and a number** — the same condition, on machines of different ages
- **A letter and a number on the display, sometimes with the control beeping** — 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 needing attention

### What to try yourself

- Press any button to stop the beeping
- Write down the exact code, every character of it
- Disconnect at the breaker, wait a few seconds and reconnect

### Then what

The catch-all for the wall ovens, and the number after the letter is the whole value of it. Photograph the display before cutting power — the code will be gone afterwards and it is the one thing nobody can recover.

This code is published for wall ovens and ranges. The [full list of codes](https://boschmiami.support/error-codes/) has the rest of them, searchable, including the labels older and newer machines use for the same conditions.
