Error codeF1 E2
ApplianceRange
F1 E2 in brief
Appliance: Maytag range, United States and Canada listing.
Named cause: the oven control, or the associated wiring.
Owner action: a one-minute power reset at the breaker(s).
If unresolved: technician visit.
Running the reset
Go to the breaker(s) that feed the range and turn them off. Leave everything off for one minute, then restore power. After power returns, watch the oven for a minute to learn whether F1 E2 reappears. The last check is simple: the oven has to operate the way it normally does.
A code that is back after this sequence is a job for a technician, not another round of resets.
Compare with these entries
F1 E1: carries the same note about the oven control and wiring.
F1 E7: different, since it names the appliance control board.
Bay Area Maytag range repair
Our San Francisco line for Maytag range work across the Bay Area is (415) 649-2156, and the details sit on the Maytag range repair page. Tell us F1 E2, give the model number, and say that the breaker reset did not hold.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 E2 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 E2 points to a possible problem with the oven 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.
