Error codeF5 E2
ApplianceWall Oven
Why F5 E2 shows up
An oven showing F5 E2 may have trouble with its door switch, its door latch assembly, or the wiring joining the two. Maytag publishes the entry for wall ovens as a group.
Do this first
Cut power to the oven at the breaker(s) and count out one minute.
Put the breaker(s) back to on.
Over the following minute, check that the code stays off the screen.
Then make sure the oven operates.
If the reset does not clear it, schedule a technician visit.
F5 E1 uses the same door latch and door switch wording.
Maytag wall oven repair, Bay Area visits
We schedule Maytag wall oven repair visits in San Francisco and neighbouring towns; the number is (415) 649-2156. Before you ring, jot down F5 E2, the oven’s model number and whether the breaker reset made any difference.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F5 E2 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
F5 E2 suggests a problem with the door switch, the door latch assembly or the wiring that goes with them.
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.
