Error codeF2
ApplianceRange
An F2 on a Maytag range tells you the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the wiring tying them together may be at fault. Maytag lists it under ranges and names no series.
Resetting the range
Cut the power at the range’s breaker.
Give it one minute with the power off.
Put the breaker back on.
Spend a minute near the oven; the code should not return.
Confirm that the oven operates.
If F2 shows up again
A repeat of the code after the reset means the next move is service. Maytag lists no other checks for the owner.
F2 E codes with keypad wording
F2 E0 is about the user interface or keypad, the control and the wiring.
F2 E1 carries the same keypad and control description.
A temperature sensor or control issue like F2 is a job for our Maytag range repair technicians in San Francisco. Please call (415) 649-2156 and be ready to share the model number, the F2 on the display and the reset you tried.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F2 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
