Press and hold the clock button for 10 second to exit sabbath mode. Then when you try to set the clock just press the clock button and enter the time dont hold the clock button in.

Let me know if it works.

OK. Are there any display showing or lit aside from the 5A6?  

Posted
Customer

When I unplugged it and plugged it back in it said -40 for about 10 sec and then went to 5A6

Yes its because whenever the range goes off and turns back on it it will activate the sabbath mode.

When you pressed the clock button earlier did the 5A6 blinked a couple of times?

Customer

no

Alright, Im suspecting  a hardware fault but have you tried leaving it plugged in for 72 hours without any power interruption because sabbath mode ends after 72 hours 

Posted
Customer

coming up on 72 hrs Ill go over and try tomorrow to see if it works   thanks  Is 5A6 the sabbath mode?

5A6 is an indication that your range has been placed in "Sabbath Mode". This is set to disable the range for up to 72 hours for those religions that honor the sabbath. It cannot be defeated by unplugging the range or turning off the breaker.

Thanks again
