Concise help for FC E5 on connected Maytag ranges.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so FC E5 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 E5
FC E5 may be a Wi-Fi Antenna or wiring problem; reset the power and monitor.
If your Maytag range reads FC E5, the manufacturer says there may be a problem with the Wi-Fi Antenna, or the associated wiring.
Do this
- Disconnect power by switching off the breaker(s) for a full minute.
- Reconnect power at the breaker(s).
- For the next minute, make sure the code does not display again.
- Test that the range works.
Not cleared?
An error that returns after the reset is the point at which Maytag suggests calling for service.
