Hi dear.Please do the following if you know what you are doing.According to your explanation,F2E6 code on whirlpool oven related with following:
F2 - E6
Cancel key drive line open
1. Check keypad connector for firm connection (keypad connects to control board).
2. Press CANCEL. If error code returns after 60 seconds, replace keypad (also called touch pad or membrane switch). Some models incorporate keypad in to control board as one unit. In this case, replace control board (also called ERC or clock).
I hope that solves your issue.Thanks.
At www.fixyourboard.com , we repair this controller frequently. An E6 F2 error code on these parts has always been due to the control board. These controllers can be repaired quickly and reliably for a fraction the cost of a new one. If buttons are not working or you get an F2-E0 or F2-E1 then the keypad needs to be replaced.
My oven quit with error F2 E6. There is a installer page inside the oven control area which gives you the key to the error codes along with the schematics etc. F2 E6 said my keypad was faulty and my investigation revealed the control board went bad. You can buy a new control board (or trust the guys who fix these and get one from them. )If you are a DIYer with electrical repair skills, read on....I pulled the oven out and opened the top, pulled the control board and keypad....on control board I noticed there was brown discoloration near the resistor and small capacitors. These board are expensive so I figured I'd risk $4 at the local electronics store for some caps and give it a shot. So, I de-soldered the .22uf, 33uf and 100uf (2) caps and all were out of spec. using my multimeter which has a cap tester. I was not able to fully check the 1000uf big brown cap as my meter only goes up to 400uf but it was taking some charge so I risked leaving it in. Plugged all connectors back in and oven now works, keypad is fine, large cap hopefully lasts, if not, I now have the spare. Not an easy fix if you do not have component level repair skills but none of the other posts fully explain this test/repair so I hope this helps at least understand a possible cause of failure.
