Error codeF1-3

Meaning of F1-3
Maytag lists F1-3 for ranges in the United States and Canada. The problem it points to may be the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the wiring connected to them.
Power reset
Switch the range off at its circuit breaker(s) and keep it off for a minute. Turn the breaker(s) on again. Over the following minute, keep watch to learn whether F1-3 returns. Then confirm that the oven operates.
If it does return
Another appearance of F1-3 after the reset means it is time to schedule a technician visit.
For a Maytag range in San Francisco or elsewhere in the Bay Area, phone (415) 649-2156 and ask for Maytag range repair. It helps to have the code F1-3, the model number and what you did at the breaker on hand.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1-3 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
F1-3 points to a possible problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the associated wiring.
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.
