possible blocked vent and it overheated

As usual which circuit breaker is an important indication of the type of fault. RCD - residual current device compares the current in the positive line and compares it with the current in the neutral line and trips if it is different - it means current has become lost, most likely leaked to ground because of an insulation or similar fault. ELCB - earth leakage circuit breaker trips if current is detected in the ground line. MCB - micro circuit breaker; the modern version of the consumer unit fuse and is resettable. This trips in response to a short circuit or overload.

You either have a bad control board or the touch pad has a button sticking and it needs the touch pad. The temperature sensor would not be a problem for this concern. I hope this helps.

Maytag is part of Whirlpool. I have attached a link that should help.

Hi Janine. F3 means "Shorted oven temperature sensor" and it is returned when the oven electronic control detects a wrong impedance value from the oven temperature sensor circuit. The oven temperature sensor is a probe located inside the oven cavity. The sensor can be removed from the oven and tested using a multimeter set on impedance. The impedance reading across the two sensor's contacts at room temperature must be about 1100 Ohms. Impedance increment rate is 100 Ohms more for every 50 degrees temperature increase. If the reading is sensibly different from this value the sensor must be replaced. Here the replacement part: Long Oven Sensor Kit The sensor is indicated as part number 11 in the exploded view available here. The sensor is held by two screws. In order to replace the sensor disconnect power, disconnect the connector attached to the sensor, undo the two screws and remove the sensor. Perform operations in reverse order to install the new sensor. Regards. Ginko

The F7 error code indicates that there is a problem with the buttons of the control panel. The code comes on when two or more buttons are stuck at the same time. The oven cannot operate when this condition exists. The oven is repaired by replacing the control panel with a functioning one. You may try to tap on the control panel lightly to see if one of the ttons is stuck down.

The F5 E2 alert indicates the washer can't engage the lid lock because there may be an obstruction in the lid lock area.

Please check the lid lock area and remove any objects in that area. Also verify there are no clothing items in the way.

have a technician check for failed elements or faulty oven switch

Bake element may be bad.

Hello, Barbara - Try this: - Switch the electric circuit breaker for the oven off. - Wait a full minute. - Switch the circuit breaker back on. - Check to determine if you can now open the oven door/s.

Was the original broil element broken or burnt? Did you reuse the original spacers to ensure the new element is not touching the oven interior? 1) To determine if the broil element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element does not have continuity, replace it. (Perform this test, even on a brand new element). 2) If element tests OK, then reinstall, and test continuity of the element wires themselves. It really comes down to these two items. Element or wires.

Sensor or board fault But its a tech call you can look the code up online make model etc then fault code

More than like a surge has fried most of the electricals in your oven. Since you are dealing with a gas appliance I suggest be very careful. Even the tiniest gas leak could result in your residence blowing up, etc. For this reason I recommend call your gas company, and have them come out and install a new one for you. It's just not worth the risk.

It's most likely the control board. It depends on age of unit and cost and time of repair. It may be quicker to just get new unit with holidays just around corner.

Assuming everything with lock mechanism is aligned properly, either lock motor is bad, or wiring could be bad, or control is bad.
