Error codeF7 E6
ApplianceRange
What F7 E6 points to
When a Maytag range displays F7 E6, the fault area named by the manufacturer is the cooling fan and the wiring that belongs to it. Nothing further is stated about the cause.
Breaker reset, step by step
Switch the range’s circuit breaker(s) off and leave them off for one minute.
Switch the breaker(s) back on.
Stay near the oven for another minute and see whether F7 E6 returns.
Make sure the oven operates.
Code still on the display
A code that survives the reset means the fan side of the range needs a technician visit.
Other fan-related codes
F7 E5 carries nearly identical wording about the cooling fan or its wiring.
F8 E2 reports the fan running at too high a speed.
F8 E0 is the opposite case, with fan speed too low.

Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F7 E6 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 range reports a possible fault in the cooling fan or in the wiring connected to it.
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.
