F0 at a glance
A communication fault between the main PCB and the sub PCB is what F0 reports on a Samsung cooktop. Samsung’s Canadian listing bundles it with F1 and F2 under one routine and names no model.
Routine to follow
Switch the cooktop off and on using the Power button.
Code still shown? Cut the power for 30 seconds, by plug or breaker, and restart.
Request service if F0 returns after that.
Linked codes
F1 also reports a communication error within the group.
When F0 will not clear on a Samsung cooktop in San Francisco, call (415) 969-6153 or read up on Samsung cooktop repair. A model number, the code and notes on your restart attempts make the conversation quicker.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so F0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means

Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
