GE JGBS66REKSS 5.0 cu ft Freestanding Gas with Griddle F7 Error Fix: Stuck Function Key (Bake/Broil/Clean)

A function key (Bake, Broil, Clean, or other cooking mode button) on the touch pad is stuck or the ERC has detected continuous unintended input from a function key — similar to F0 but specific to the cooking function buttons rather than the numeric keypad; press CLEAR/OFF to cancel; if the code recurs, the touch pad membrane may need replacement; on some models, moisture from cooking steam infiltrates behind the membrane panel causing intermittent shorts
