Error code1c8c
ApplianceWall Oven
An oven that displays 1c8c is reporting what Maytag calls a possible problem with its control or the wiring connected to that control.
The owner step
Begin at the breaker panel. Switch the oven’s breaker(s) off and wait one (1) minute, then switch them on. After power returns, keep an eye on the display for one more minute to be sure 1c8c stays away, and end by confirming that the oven runs.
What a returning code means
When the same code shows up again, resetting further is pointless. The control and its wiring are electronic parts, and checking them falls to a technician.

1c82: right beside this code in the list, with the control wording.
1c2c: about the keypad, not the control, though the two get mixed up.

What this code means
1c8c is described as a possible fault in the oven control or the wiring tied to it.
