Hotpoint oven F02 error code
F02 means ntc sensor fault. The oven temperature sensor (NTC) is faulty or disconnected, so the electronics cannot read cavity temperature and heating stops..
Engineer usually needed · Fault type: Electrical/hardware
Safe checks, in order of likelihood
- Switch off at the mains for 10 minutes and retry — transient sensor errors clear.
- If the oven heats then stops with F02, the sensor is the prime suspect.
- Check the sensor probe inside the cavity is not loose or knocked.
Call a professional when…
Reset; then the NTC sensor probe is replaced (a small screw-in part inside the cavity). If the code returns after these checks, book a qualified engineer.
