We have a new Discover America 4 months old. After using the Dometic DOTRC 17 B Confection Oven 4 times, we get a F-5 error. The unit will start and run for 14 seconds and throw the code.We tried unplugging and plugging several times and still get the F-5 code after 14 seconds. Has anyone on the forum had this problem, and how did you handle the problem ? Any thoughts or suggestions will help. Thank you...........

Sorry you are having problems. New items, no matter what they are, that do not perform properly are worrysome. The good news is this is something than can be unplugged and replaced. Being only four months since you purchased the RV, return it to the dealer and have them straighten out the problem.
In our last fiver ours went. would work on micro but not convec. Dometic replaced quickly free of charge

F-5 is a control board failure code.....sometimes the microwave portion will work afterwards but will resume f-5 failure if you attempt to use convection..........Return to dealer or call for authorized service centers
this happens alot in motor homes and travel units due to varied power issues in parks and sweeps in generator power

Thank you for your comments. We will replace ours, although the F-5 code is intermittent.
