Reading F1 E7
Unlike most F1 E codes, F1 E7 does not blame the oven control. Maytag’s range help for the United States and Canada names the appliance control board, or the associated wiring. The Maytag service tech sheet for ovens and ranges lists F1E7 as a PCB thermistor that is open or shorted.
The reset Maytag lists
Cut power to the range at the circuit breaker(s) and wait one minute.
Put the breaker(s) back on.
Stay with the oven for a minute and see whether F1 E7 comes back.
Test that the oven operates.
If the display still shows F1 E7, book a technician visit. No other owner step is given.
Compare the board codes with the control codes
F1 E9 names the same appliance control board and wiring.
When F1 E7 will not go away on a Maytag range in the Bay Area, call (415) 649-2156 and ask about Maytag range repair in San Francisco. Keep the code, model number and reset result on hand.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1 E7 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 E7 points to a possible problem with the appliance control board or the associated wiring, and a service tech sheet describes a PCB thermistor that is open or shorted.
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.
