Per the Viking DSOE301SS service manual
Check, in this order
-
Copy the model and serial numbers somewhere safe before anyone opens the oven.
pass a DSOE or DDOE model: this code applies fail another Viking model: read the display to us exactly
-
Think back: was a control board or wiring replaced on this oven recently?
pass yes: the header fitted with that work is the first suspect fail no recent work: note when F06 began and what was running
-
Try a single breaker reset: off for a minute, then on.
pass F06 gone: keep your note and book if it returns fail F06 back at once: leave the oven switched off

Parts and paperwork
The model and serial numbers help pin down the right header, so have them ready before you call.
F06 sits with F08 among the faults that live in the electronics rather than the heating parts: nothing you can see inside the oven will show it.
Stop and call if
- F06 appears straight after a control board or wiring replacement.
- The code survives the single breaker reset.
Also asked
Why would an oven forget which model it is?
The EOC4 control takes its model setting from a plug-in header. When that setting reads as undefined, the service table's action is to power down and insert the correct header. F06 is ranked critical, so the control cancels the cycle and switches all elements off.
Can F06 be cleared at home?
Only as far as the one breaker reset in the checklist. The header belongs to the control, which the service manual reaches by lifting off the oven's top panels with the power off. Viking Repair Redmond, (425) 585-2373, diagnoses F06 on an $89 visit.
