F1-L on a Maytag range points to a possible problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the associated wiring.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F1-L 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
F1-L
There may be a problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the associated wiring.
What the display is telling you
Maytag’s product help ties F1-L to the oven temperature sensor, the control or the associated wiring. Maytag gives it for ranges as a group and no individual model numbers are named.
Resetting the range
Begin here: turn off the breaker(s) behind the range for the length of one minute. Following the wait, restore power by switching on the breaker(s) again. During the next 1 minute, monitor the oven to make sure the display stays clear of the code. To finish, confirm the oven works.
If the error is still showing, arrange service.
Other codes worth a look
Easily confused with: F1-H for oven temperature sensor; F1E5 for sensor out of range; F1-E covers oven control.
