What the F-37 error code actually means

Your Maytag oven is displaying F-37 because the temperature sensor on the induction cooktop is not working correctly. This sensor helps the oven track how hot the cooking surface is, and something is wrong with it or its wiring. The cooktop may not function until the problem is resolved.

Questions people ask about F-37

What does F-37 mean on a Maytag oven?
F-37 on a Maytag oven indicates a Type 1 failure in the induction cooktop temperature sensor. The control board is detecting that the sensor signal is not within the expected range, which may disable the induction cooktop. The sensor should read between 184 kilohms and 292 kilohms at room temperature when measured with a multimeter.
Is it safe to use my Maytag oven while the F-37 code is showing?
The induction cooktop may be disabled or unreliable while the F-37 fault is active, since the control board cannot accurately monitor surface temperature. It is best to avoid using the induction cooking zones until the sensor issue is resolved. The oven cavity itself may still function depending on the model.
How much does it cost to fix a Maytag F-37 error code?
If the fix is simply reseating a loose connector, there is no parts cost involved. A replacement induction cooktop temperature sensor typically costs between $20 and $80 depending on the specific model. If a control board replacement is needed, parts and labor costs can range from $150 to $400 or more.
Can I fix the F-37 error code myself?
A knowledgeable DIYer can diagnose this fault by disconnecting power and using a multimeter to check the sensor resistance. If the connector is simply loose, reseating it may clear the error. Replacing the thermistor is also a straightforward repair, though working on induction appliances requires care and the power must be fully disconnected before any work begins.
Will resetting the oven clear the F-37 error code?
Unplugging the range or cutting power at the breaker for a few minutes will reset the control board and may temporarily clear the F-37 code. However, if the underlying sensor or wiring problem is not repaired, the fault will return once the appliance is powered back on and the cooktop is used.
