Error codeF6 E3

What F6 E3 points to
Wiring and the Appliance Manager are the two things Maytag names for F6 E3. The help text also says there can be a variety of different reasons it appears. The entry belongs to ranges generally.
The tech sheet has its own spelling, F6E3, which it reads as over temperature in the warming drawer.
Manual reset sequence
Shut off the breaker(s) for one minute.
Restore power at the breaker(s).
Watch the oven for a full minute to be sure the code stays gone.
Test that the oven operates.
If F6 E3 keeps coming back, book a technician rather than running more resets.
F6 E4 names the oven appliance manager or oven control.
F6E3 covers the warming drawer over-temperature reading.
Range service in San Francisco
For Maytag range service anywhere in the Bay Area, phone (415) 649-2156. Mention F6 E3, your model number and the reset you tried. The Maytag range repair page has more.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F6 E3 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
The Appliance Manager or its wiring may have a problem, and the tech sheet separately lists F6E3 as a warming drawer over temperature.
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.
