Error codeF1 E0
ApplianceCooktop
With F1 E0 on the display, a Maytag electric cooktop believes that one or more keys are permanently pressed. Along with the code you may see lights flashing and hear beeping or audio tones.
Start with the touch panel
Confirm that all cooktop controls are OFF.
Take off anything that has been left on the control area, and wipe debris from the surface of the panel.
Give the touch control panel a thorough cleaning.
Next, a power reset
Maytag adds that the cooktop control, or the wiring connected to it, may be the source. To test it, switch the cooktop’s breaker(s) off for a minute and switch them on. Look at the cooktop for another minute to see if the code shows up again, and verify operation.

Cooktop repair when F1 E0 will not clear in San Francisco
If the keys still read as pressed after cleaning and a reset, a technician should check the control and its wiring. Ring (415) 649-2156 from San Francisco or the Bay Area, or open Maytag cooktop repair. Tell us the code, the model number and how you cleaned the panel.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 E0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
