What this code means
F8
Maytag page lists this code but states no cause, only reset/service steps.
Short answer
No cause is named for F8. The Maytag help page offers a probe check and a power reset instead.
What to try
First, make sure the meat probe sits firmly in its receptacle (the location varies by range). Next, switch the breaker(s) off, wait one minute, switch them back on, and monitor the oven for one minute. Last, verify oven operation.
