Error codeF1-E
ApplianceRange
F1-E is a fault message from Maytag ranges. Maytag ties it to the oven control and to the wiring that serves the control. The listing covers ranges in general rather than a particular model.
Reset sequence Maytag gives for F1-E
Go to the breaker panel and switch off whatever breaker feeds the range.
Let it stay off for a full minute.
Switch the breaker on so the range has power again.
Remain nearby for about a minute and see if F1-E appears once more.
Run the oven to confirm it works normally.
What to do if F1-E comes back
A code that returns after the reset means the oven control or its wiring needs a technician’s attention. Maytag’s guidance ends with a service visit, and no further owner steps are listed.
Neighbouring F1 codes
F1E0 is written without a space and is listed as an EEPROM communication error.
F1 E0 carries the same oven control and wiring wording as F1-E.
When F1-E keeps returning, our technicians handle Maytag range repair across San Francisco and the Bay Area. Ring (415) 649-2156 and tell us the code, the range’s model number, and that you already cycled the breaker.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1-E may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
