Error codeF5 E4
ApplianceWall Oven
Overview of F5 E4
F5 E4 is the second of two codes in this group that single out the lower oven. Three items are listed: the lower oven door latch assembly, the door switch and the wiring tied to either. Maytag gives the entry for wall ovens in general and lists no models.
Try these four steps
Breaker off. Leave the oven’s breaker(s) off for a minute.
Breaker on. Switch the breaker(s) back on.
Watch. Spend a minute making sure the error does not return.
Test. Verify the oven operates.
An error that outlasts the reset should go to a technician.
Nearby codes
Two entries are worth a look. F5 E3 carries the same lower oven door latch wording, while F5 E5 is an oven door latch assembly code without the word lower.

Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F5 E4 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
