Quick answer

F40 points to the touchpad, power control board or wiring on electric, radiant and induction Whirlpool cooktops.

Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F40 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

F40 may indicate a problem with the touchpad, the cooktop power control board or the wiring.

What the help says

Three possible sources are named for F40: the touchpad (the user interface), the power control board of the cooktop, and the wiring that links them.

Owner action

Cycle the breaker: off for one minute, then on. If F40 comes back, a technician checks the touchpad, the board and the wiring.
