Error codeF3
ApplianceWall Oven
Maytag lists F3 for wall ovens as a possible problem with the oven control, or the wiring connected to it.
Try this
Switch off the oven’s breaker(s) and leave the power off for one minute, then switch the breaker(s) back on. For the next minute keep the display in sight; F3 should not show again. After that, check that the oven operates.
If F3 is still there
When F3 returns or the oven acts up, a technician visit is the next step. The product help treats the control and its wiring as the area to look at, so repeated resets will not replace an inspection.
F3 E2, which concerns the oven temperature sensor.

What this code means
The oven control or its wiring may have a problem.
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.
