Questions
about F1E7.

Can I clear F1E7 myself?

Is F1E9 different from F1E7 on a Maytag cooktop?
Maytag explains both the same way, as a possible control or wiring problem.
Will cleaning the glass fix F1E7?
Maytag does not suggest it for this code. A one-minute breaker reset is the only home step.
What does a technician check for F1E7 on a Maytag cooktop?
The cooktop control and the wiring attached to it, which are the only items on Maytag's F1E7 page. Nothing on that page involves pans, spills or the glass surface.
