A commercial dryer from Maytag that displays F23 is giving a fault message. The help text names no cause for it and offers the owner a short power reset instead.

Carrying out the reset
Cut the supply at the breaker(s) and keep the dryer dead for five minutes. Power back up, choose time dry and press start, then stand by for a minute. F23 should not reappear.
If it does come back, the help text points to service, so the next move is a technician visit rather than another round of resets.
