Confirm the code and model scope
Photograph the entire display and rating label, then compare the code and full model number with the cited Maytag Product Help article.

Keep inspection owner-accessible
Follow only external, owner-accessible checks stated for the exact model. Do not open a service panel or infer a failed component from a possible-cause label.
Expected: No unsafe condition or internal service step is required.
If not resolved: Stop using the appliance and arrange qualified service.
Reset and test
A user reset is not documented for this condition.
Important: No universal reset is asserted because Product Help pages may cover several model families with different controls.
Escalation point
Stop and arrange service when
- The exact model is outside the cited support scope or its manual assigns a different meaning.
- The condition returns or requires panel removal, live electrical testing, gas work, or sealed-system access.
- There is smoke, a gas or burning odor, sparking, overheating, leakage, or repeated breaker tripping.
