Why the oven shows FC E2
The connection to your router did not succeed.
Maytag lists these possibilities: the Wi-Fi module, a time out, weak signal strength, a router that has failed, or the wiring.
Oven first
Turn the breaker(s) off for a minute and back on. Then stay with the appliance for 1 minute to see that FC E2 is not displayed again, and verify operation.
Then the router and signal
If the module has no link to the wireless router, reset the router.
Carry a smart phone or tablet to the oven. Do other Wi-Fi capable devices behave correctly there?
If yes: router power off for 2 minutes then reconnected, followed by the oven’s own power off for 2 minutes then reconnected.
Not seeing full bars? Move the router, add a compatible signal extender, or talk to your Internet Service Provider.
