What error code F170 means on a Bosch freestanding range
Power failure. [1]
This is a power supply code. Codes and wording can vary by model, so check your owner's manual for your model number.
How to fix Bosch freestanding range error code F170 (safe owner checks)
- Write down the code and model number. Note exactly what the display shows (F170) and copy the full model number from the rating label, so you can confirm this chart applies to your freestanding range and order the right parts.
- Clear the code at the controls. Press the Cancel button to clear the code.
- Do a power reset. Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker for one minute, then restore power and try again. If the code clears and stays away, it may have been a one-off fault.
- Test and decide. Run a short cycle or restart and watch the display. If F170 comes back after these checks, stop using the range for this function and call a technician, because the remaining causes need meters or part replacement.
The first and last steps (and the power reset) are general owner checks added by ErrorCodePro; the rest follow the Bosch freestanding range error-code chart published by Sears PartsDirect, rewritten for safe owner use.
