FC RF on a Maytag electric cooktop: what the code refers to and the reset Maytag lists.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so FC RF 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
FC RF
FC RF may mean a problem with the right front hotplate or the associated wiring.
The FC RF message
FC RF names the right front position on a Maytag electric cooktop. The hotplate there, or the wiring that serves it, may have a problem.
Reset it this way
Turn off the circuit breaker(s) for one minute and then turn them on. After that, give the cooktop a minute of observation: the error code should not display again. Verify cooktop operation to wrap up.
