Error codeF5 E7
ApplianceWall Oven
F5 E7 explained
What the oven is hinting at: trouble in the oven door latch assembly, in the door switch, or in the wiring that serves them. Maytag covers wall ovens broadly here, without a model list, so the guidance fits whichever wall oven shows the code. The listing is worded the same as the one for F5 E5.
Compare before you act
F5 E5 has matching oven door latch assembly wording, so the two are easy to confuse.
F5 E4 is the lower oven door latch version, meaning the wording is about the lower cavity.
The four-part reset
Move the oven’s breaker(s) to off and wait sixty seconds.
Move them to on so the oven has power again.
Remain near the oven for one minute and note whether the code reappears.
Confirm the oven operates.
A returning code means a technician visit.

Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F5 E7 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 E7 may point to the oven door latch assembly, the door switch or the associated wiring.
