Error codeFC RR

Reading FC RR
This message is tied to the right rear of a Maytag electric or induction cooktop. Maytag words it as a possible problem, not a confirmed fault, with the hotplate (cooking surface, burner or element) or the wiring connected to it.
Steps to follow
Cut power to the cooktop at its breaker(s) for a single minute.
Restore power at the breaker(s).
Give it one minute of observation to see if FC RR reappears.
Check that the cooktop performs normally.
If the message persists
The reset is the only owner action listed. A returning FC RR means the hotplate and its wiring need a technician visit.
FC E4 concerns the harness from touchpad to Induction Module.
Bay Area repair for your Maytag cooktop
A technician visit for FC RR in San Francisco or the wider Bay Area can be arranged through Maytag cooktop repair. Dial (415) 649-2156 and be ready to share the code, the model number and how the breaker reset turned out.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so FC RR 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
