What F62 (Sous Vide Temperature Sensor Error) Means
F62 indicates a Sous Vide Temperature Sensor Error on LG range models with an integrated sous vide cooking zone, per LG's range Help Library article, which documents this scheme across its Electric Range, Radiant Cooktop, and Gas Range tabs together. Sous vide cooking relies on precise, sustained water temperature to safely cook food, so a sensor fault here has real food-safety implications, not just a convenience issue.
Common Causes of F62 (Sous Vide Temperature Sensor Error)
- Sous vide temperature sensor has failed or lost contact
- Wiring fault to the sensor
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Turn the circuit breaker for the range off, wait 30 seconds, and turn it back on; do not resume or trust an in-progress sous vide cook that was interrupted by this code, since you can't confirm the water maintained a safe temperature throughout.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- Sous vide cooking depends on accurate, continuous temperature control to keep food in a safe zone for an extended time - if this sensor is faulted, don't resume or trust a sous vide cook already in progress; when in doubt about how long food sat at an uncertain temperature, discard it rather than risk it.
- If a breaker cycle doesn't clear F62, the sensor needs a technician's replacement before you use the sous vide function again.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
