Maytag Oven Error Code F-58

The F-58 error code on a Maytag induction oven indicates a wrong or invalid configuration detected within the Induction Power System (IPS), classified as a Type 2 failure. The IPS is the core assembly responsible for converting household AC power into the high-frequency alternating current used to generate the electromagnetic field in induction cooktop burners. When the control board communicates with the IPS and receives a configuration response that does not match the expected parameters for the installed unit, it registers this Type 2 fault and halts induction cooking operations as a protective measure.

A Type 2 configuration failure typically points to a mismatch or corruption at the hardware or firmware level within the IPS module itself. This can occur when an IPS unit has been swapped with an incompatible replacement, when internal IPS firmware has become corrupted, or when the IPS has suffered partial component failure that causes it to report incorrect identification data to the main control board. Unlike a simple communication error, a Type 2 failure specifically identifies a configuration validity problem rather than a signal loss between components.

The primary corrective action for F-58 is to disconnect power from the range completely before servicing, then replace the Induction Power System. Power must be fully removed prior to any work on the IPS due to the high voltages present in induction cooking assemblies. After replacing the IPS with a correctly matched unit for the specific model, the configuration handshake between the control board and the new IPS should resolve the fault.
