Anytime an oven error code shows on your digital display screen, it can cause alarm and stress. Codes appear to inform you that something is not working as it should on your Maytag appliance. Because the display screen is too small to detail exactly what is wrong with your Maytag oven, codes are used.
Understanding and identifying your Maytag oven codes will not only remove a lot of the stress when troubleshooting your oven codes, but they will also help you in determining when you should call in a technician to repair your oven and when you can easily correct the error code yourself.
