The first thing to check is the oven sensor you will have to purchase a new one and have a local service co. come to put it in and unlock the door for you. good luck

Getting a F1-4 error code on my Maytag Gemini model # 6772. Came home to the upper oven at full heat with the control panel beeping. Extremely dangerous situation where the oven would not shut off at the...

Hi greg_shanoia,

The F1:-4 error code means "Runaway Clean Lower oven". You need to check the oven temperature sensor, replace if necessary.

Hope it helps.

Thank you for using FixYa.

When trying to use either upper or lower oven, panel flashing "Control Locked." Won't work.

Try this:

ToChangeFactorySetDefaultOptions:

1, Controloptionsmay be changedby se-

desiredoptionpad.(SeeOptionsbelow.)

2. Currentoptionwillappearin thedisplay.

3. PresstheAUTOSETpadtochangethe

option.

4. PressCANCELpadtosetthe displayed
optionandexittheprogram

The LOCK is option 4 change the OPTION from 4 to 9.
9 is the factory default settings.

This should work. However.... there is the possibility that the unit had performed a self clean function. If you just completed a self clean cycle it can but up to 1 hour AFTER the cycle before you can open the door or use the oven as the range must cool down and cycle a thermostat before it wil work again.

There is also the possibility that the door lock has not completely retracted. If you can get it to start a self clean cycle.... after 1 minute press cancel and the lock should retract. (I know you said won't do anything) I am hoping that after you reset the options from 4 to 9 that you might be able to do this.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,
Kelly

Getting error code 9-6 on MER6770AAW maytag gemini double oven range...what and how to fix?

That code is for obstruction in the lower door lock mechanism. You need to check for a obstruction in the lower door lock. The next step would be to disconnect the power for a few minutes then turn it back on and see if the code reappears.

The lower oven door locked shut. Accidently pushed wrong button & lower oven locked and I can not get it to open.

stop pushing all the buttons. Turn the power off for a few min. It should un lock when power is back. If not set clock, set oven into clean cycle, wate a few min then hit cancle. wate till door unlocks. If nothing happens make sure you dident hit the child lock button. It looks like a pad lock on touch pannel. push and hold it to unlock. Re try clean cycle. let it lock then wate ,then cancle .

Maytag Gemini Electric Oven - Lower is not locked, but will not open.

Usually, starting with a COLD oven, turn the self clean on. Wait 3 minutes, then turn it off [cancel] WAIT 1 minute at least, do not immediately pull on the door. This should reset the lock sync. If you cannot get it open still, you may have a faulty sensor that thinks the oven is overheated, or at this point you could have a bent actuator rod from all the tugging!
