Error codeF02
ApplianceWall Oven
F02, briefly
Wall ovens show F02 when something may be wrong with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the wiring. The manual treats the sensor as the possibility to note, not as a confirmed fault.
Work through these steps
Switch the oven’s breaker(s) off and wait a minute.
Give the oven power again at the breaker(s).
Spend a minute watching for the error to return.
Check the oven works as it should.
When F02 does not go
Have a technician look at the oven. Those parts are beyond owner steps.
To arrange a wall oven repair visit in San Francisco or around the Bay, dial (415) 649-2156. The Maytag wall oven repair page describes the work. Keep the code, the oven model and your reset notes within reach.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F02 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
F02 is shown when there may be a problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control or the associated wiring.
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.
