- Appliance
- Cooktop
F0 or F00 on a Maytag electric or induction cooktop: something is pressing on the controls. Clear the panel, then reset.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F0 / F00 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
F0 / F00
Objects, liquids or soils are putting pressure on the control panel.
Reading F0 and F00
Both spellings appear in Maytag’s help for electric and induction cooktops. The display is reacting to pressure on the control panel from an object, a liquid or soil.
Clearing it
- Lift off any objects resting on the controls.
- Clean debris from the panel surface.
If the code is still displayed, shut off the breaker(s) supplying the cooktop for one minute and switch them on again. Keep watching for one minute. If nothing returns, verify that the cooktop works.
