Error codeF6E2
ApplianceRange
The Maytag tech sheet lists F6E2 as over temperature during clean. Put simply, the range reports that it overheated while a cleaning cycle was in progress.
What to do with it
No owner steps are given for this code.
Give the oven time to cool.
Do not start another clean cycle until the range has been looked at.
Temperature faults are best left to a technician.
Over-temperature relatives
F6E1 is the same kind of reading during cook, and F6E3 relates to the warming drawer. The help-page code F6 E0 is a separate entry about the oven control.

Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F6E2 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
