About Maytag
Maytag is an American brand owned by Whirlpool Corporation. Because Maytag and Whirlpool share engineering, many Maytag appliances use the same F-and-E style codes, though the exact meaning can still differ by model, so check the code against your own appliance.

Before you start
- Find your model number. It's on the rating label, usually inside the door or lid, on the frame, or on the back or side panel.
- Try a reset. Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker for 10 minutes. Many codes are one-off glitches.
- Stay safe. Never bypass safety switches or work on live wiring, gas or refrigerant lines. Each guide tells you when to call a technician.
