Heater 1 code from the Maytag dryer service data sheet.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F4E1 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
What this code means
F4E1
Heater 1 failure or connector problem; no voltage at heater relay.
Reading F4E1
The service data sheet attaches F4E1 to heater 1: either the heater has failed or a connector has a problem, and the heater relay sees no voltage.
Next step
No owner checks are listed. Heater and connector work is for a technician.
Compare
F4 E1 is the owner-facing heater code. F4E2 is the heater 2 code.
