What we can confirm
Code F6, from the manufacturer's own documentation
A code is only meaningful together with the machine showing it — the same digits mean different things on different equipment.

What else belongs to the microwaves
On this make a code belongs to the appliance rather than to a product line. These are the other conditions this machine can display, and the models that can show this one — a display often has more than one thing to say, and the model number decides what any of it costs to put right.
Other codes this appliance can display
an open thermal sensor from excessive cavity heat
an open humidity sensor
a shorted humidity sensor
a shorted touch screen
the probe is not connected
the power was interrupted
the Power Watch indicator
an open thermal sensor

About Monogram microwave error code F6
What F6 means, in the maker's own words
A shorted temperature probe. The probe circuit rather than the cavity — the appliance believes the probe is telling it something impossible.
Where this code actually appears
On the control panel, and usually with a sound. Monogram describes their refrigerator codes as flashing green on the display and typically accompanied by a beeping, and the range, microwave and dishwasher tables all describe codes you can read from the front of the appliance. That is the opposite of some makes, where the number is written into a hidden log and never shown — here, if something is wrong, the appliance generally tells you. Photograph what it says before cutting the power, because a reset erases it and the code is most of the diagnosis.
Which machines this one applies to
Monogram built-in microwaves and microwave drawers. Monogram says plainly on their own range and oven table that they cannot list every code for every model past and present, so a code missing from their table is not proof that your appliance cannot raise it — and a code in it is not proof that yours can. The model number settles it.
What to do about it
- Unplug the probe and try the oven without it.
- Look for damage to the probe lead, which is where these usually fail.
- Try a known-good probe if one is available.
- If the code stands with nothing plugged in, the receptacle is the repair.
Where this goes next
The job this usually becomes is diagnostic visit, and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call (305) 614-3572 and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
