What this code means
F3 E1
There may be a problem with the oven temperature sensor, the control, or the associated wiring.
Seeing F3 E1? Maytag says the oven temperature sensor, the control or the wiring may be to blame. The first thing the product help asks for is a power reset: breaker(s) off for one minute, breaker(s) back on, then one minute of watching the oven to see that the code stays gone. Verify the oven operates after that.
