Maytag Range Error Code F1:E

The F1:E code means the electronic control board is not calibrated. The board stores operational and temperature calibration data internally, and when that data is missing or corrupted, this code appears. There is no field recalibration procedure available, so the control board must be replaced to resolve the issue.

It is not recommended to continue using the range when this code is active. Because the control board lacks valid calibration data, it cannot regulate oven temperature or operations reliably. Continued use could result in unpredictable behavior from the range.

A reset, such as cutting power to the range at the breaker for a few minutes, is unlikely to permanently clear the F1:E code. Because the error indicates a fundamental calibration failure within the control board's memory, the code will typically return after power is restored. Replacing the control board is the required fix.

The repair requires replacing the electronic control board, which is a task some experienced DIYers can handle if they are comfortable working with appliance electronics and disconnecting wiring harnesses. However, because the control board involves electrical components and connects to high-voltage circuits in the range, those who are not confident in appliance repair should contact a qualified technician.

The cost depends on the specific model and whether you hire a technician or replace the board yourself. Control board parts for Maytag ranges typically range from around $150 to $400 or more depending on the model. Adding professional labor, total repair costs can range from roughly $250 to $600 or higher.
