F8 and what is missing from it

A plain F8 on a Maytag range arrives without any explanation of the fault. The help article skips the cause and goes straight to actions.

Work through these in sequence

  1. Look at the meat probe receptacle and confirm the probe is seated firmly in it. The receptacle position differs from range to range.
  2. Turn the circuit breaker(s) off and wait one minute.
  3. Turn the breaker(s) on again.
  4. Watch the oven for one minute so you know the code is not back.
  5. Verify that the oven operates.

When F8 does not go away

A code that is still shown after the reset calls for a technician visit.

Longer codes that begin with F8

  • F8 E0: cooling fan speed too low.
  • F8 E2: cooling fan speed too high.
  • F8 EA: a user interface or wiring message.

Range repair service in San Francisco

Plain language

What this code means

The manufacturer names no cause for F8 and lists only a meat probe check, a power reset and service.

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.
