KitchenAid Range Error Code F24

F24 means the steam board has detected that the drain button is electrically disconnected. The steam board uses connector JP02 to communicate with the drain button, and this code appears when that connection is missing or broken. It can be caused by a loose harness connector, damaged wiring, a failed button, or a faulty steam board.

It is generally best to avoid using the steam functions while this fault is active, as the steam board cannot reliably detect the state of the drain button. Whether other cooking functions are affected depends on your specific model. When in doubt, resolve the fault before resuming use.

If the fix is simply reseating the JP02 connector, there may be no parts cost at all. A replacement wiring harness or drain button typically runs in the range of $20 to $80 in parts. If the steam board itself needs replacement, parts alone can range from $100 to $300 or more, with additional labor costs if a technician is needed.

In many cases, yes. Start by unplugging the range or shutting off its circuit breaker, then locate the steam board and check the JP02 connector for a secure fit. If the connector is loose, reseating it may clear the fault. If the wiring or button is damaged, those repairs may require ordering replacement parts.

A power reset may temporarily clear the code, but if the underlying connection problem still exists, the fault will return. The code will only stay cleared once the disconnection at JP02 or the drain button itself is properly diagnosed and repaired.
