Maytag range
Possible cause
Oven control, or the wiring associated with it
First action
Breaker reset, one minute
If it returns
Technician visit
The Maytag entry does not narrow 1C8C to one series.
How to run the reset
Turn off the range’s breaker(s) and let a full minute pass. Turn them back on. Then spend one minute checking the display for 1C8C, and finish by confirming that the oven operates.
1C2C: points to the keypad, so do not confuse the two.
Maytag range repair when the reset fails
Our Bay Area team covers Maytag ranges from San Francisco outward. Phone (415) 649-2156 with 1C8C, the model number and the outcome of the breaker reset. The Maytag range repair page explains more.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so 1C8C 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
Maytag lists 1C8C as a possible oven control or wiring problem on ranges.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
