Maytag Cooktop F1 E1 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code F1 E1
Appliance Cooktop

What F1 E1 means

This is a communication loss. The user interface of a Maytag electric cooktop, meaning its keypad, is no longer talking to the appliance manager.

Power reset in order

  1. Turn the circuit breaker(s) for the cooktop off. This powers the unit down; leave it for one minute.
  2. Turn the breaker(s) on to power the unit up.
  3. Monitor the unit for one minute and check that F1 E1 does not display.
  4. Verify operation.

Compare with these codes

  • F1 E0: the other F1 keypad code, with cleaning steps
  • F1 E9: a control or wiring message
  • F13: also answered by a breaker reset

Maytag cooktop service in the Bay Area

A keypad that still reports F1 E1 after the reset needs a technician visit. We take calls for San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area at (415) 649-2156, and Maytag cooktop repair explains the visit. Have the model number and the reset you did ready.

Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 E1 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
