What F13 stands for

The touch control module of a Maytag electric cooktop has hit an internal communication error whenever F13 is shown.

Maytag’s remedy

  1. Go to the breaker panel, flip the cooktop’s breaker(s) to off and let a minute go by.
  2. Flip the breaker(s) back to on.
  3. Give it a further minute and check that F13 stays off the display.
  4. Then confirm normal operation of the cooktop.
