Maytag MGR5870 Gas Kitchen Range Questions & Answers
My oven door will not shut, i have a code of F9
it MAY be your oven door lock is jammed..
I found this information for you:
1
Wait at least one hour after the oven has completed a self clean cycle to attempt to open the oven door, as the oven remains locked until the interior temperature has cooled sufficiently.
2
Press "Cancel" and wait a few minutes if the oven is cool and wait until at least one hour has elapsed since the completion of a self-clean cycle.
3
Open the oven door and check the door lock switch. Move the switch back and forth with your fingers to return the switch to the original position. Check for dirt or debris that may be causing the switch to stick or lock and clean as necessary.
4
Contact an authorized service technician if the problem is not resolved, as the door switch may need to be replaced.

How to test many brands of Ranges that are flashing a F1 fault code: You have either a bad ERC (clock) or a bad touch pad.
1. Disconnect power to stove
2. Gain access to the back of the clock (electronic range control or ERC).
3. Unplug the touch pad ribbon connector from the ERC. This will be a flat wire approx. 1 1/2" to
2" wide.
4. Make sure everything is clear and will not short out when power is turned back on.
5. Turn power back on to stove.
6. Watch for the F1 and listen for the beep.
7. If you get the F1 and beep, replace the ERC.
8. If after approx. 30 minutes you do NOT get the F1 and hear the beep, replace the touch pad.
NOTE: Some models incorporate the touch pad and the clock as one part. * We have seen a few of the newer Maytag ranges with a F1 fault code and the problem was the oven temp sensor, check carefully the wires to and from the oven temp sensor!!
I have two things I have been disappointed with my
The problem with the oven sounds like one of the common ones. I have seen this a lot lately. It is caused be the oven thermostat being out of calibration. When you are cooking something at 350 degrees, try setting the thermostat at 310 degrees (make sure to preheat although I'm sure you are) If this does not fix the problem, it will at least help it. If you unit is still under warranty, call Maytag for service and they will correct the problem. If they can't repair it, they are real good about exchanging unit with new ones. As far as the burners, this is a problem they are having and it looks like they can't fix it. The burners get so hot that they can't seem to find anything to stay on them that will not burn over time. I hope this helps.
Maytag oven will not get hot
the ignitor is bad, the ignitor opens the valve when there is enough amperage. the ignitor isn't pulling enough to fully open it
Oven heats very slowly
If your top burners work ok, regulator should be ok. Majority of times the fail part in the oven is the ignitor...turn oven on and check for a flame after 10 mins. small flame could mean a bad safety valve.

Stove ignitor does not light burner. How to fix ?
This may sound silly and I know your stove is gas, but is your stove plugged into a power outlet on the wall? Some older stoves had the igniters powered from a wall socket so had to be 'plugged in' and others are powered by replaceable batteries, (AA's or AAA's), with the pack being mounted low down on the front, near one of the front feet. If it is a battery type try changing the battery for a new one. Sometimes the fix is that easy.
My maytag gemini oven keypad (numbers only) stopped working.
If the keypad on your Maytag Gemini oven (numbers only) has stopped working, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
- Power cycle the oven: Turn off the oven by unplugging it from the power source or by switching off the circuit breaker. Leave it powered off for a few minutes, and then plug it back in or switch the circuit breaker back on. This can sometimes reset the keypad and resolve temporary issues.
- Check for physical damage: Inspect the keypad for any physical damage, such as cracks or signs of wear. If you notice any damage, it may be causing the keypad malfunction. In such cases, the keypad might need to be replaced.
- Clean the keypad: Over time, dirt, grease, or food particles can accumulate on the keypad, which can interfere with its functioning. Use a soft, damp cloth to gently clean the keypad. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive moisture that could damage the keypad.
- Test the oven's other functions: Check if other functions of the oven are working properly, such as the temperature controls and other buttons. If only the numeric keypad is affected, it could indicate a specific issue with that part of the keypad or the underlying circuitry.
- Contact Maytag customer support: If the above steps do not resolve the issue, it is advisable to contact Maytag customer support or schedule a service appointment with a qualified technician. They will be able to provide further guidance and assistance in diagnosing and fixing the problem.
I changed my Maytag over to lp and the oven and broiler don't get propane to it it glows but no flam what's wrong
If you've converted your Maytag oven to LP (propane) and you're experiencing issues with the oven and broiler not receiving propane and not producing a flame, there could be a few possible causes:
- Gas supply: Ensure that the propane supply to the oven is turned on and the gas valve is fully open. Check that the propane tank is properly connected and that there is sufficient propane in the tank. If the tank is low or empty, it may need to be refilled.
- Incorrect conversion: Double-check that the conversion from natural gas to LP was done correctly. Verify that the conversion orifices have been installed in the correct locations and that the air adjustment shutters or plates have been adjusted according to the manufacturer's instructions. Improper conversion can result in inadequate gas flow and a lack of flame.
- Clogged orifices: It's possible that the orifices, which control the flow of gas, have become clogged with debris or residue during the conversion process. Clean the orifices using a small brush or a compressed air canister specifically designed for cleaning gas orifices.
- Gas pressure: LP gas operates at a higher pressure than natural gas. Ensure that the pressure regulator on the oven has been adjusted or replaced to accommodate LP gas. If the regulator is not properly set for LP gas, it may not deliver the correct pressure for proper combustion.
- Faulty ignition system: If the oven and broiler are glowing but not producing a flame, there may be an issue with the ignition system. Check the igniter for any signs of damage or wear. A faulty igniter may not generate enough heat to ignite the propane. Consider replacing the igniter if necessary.
If you've checked these potential issues and the problem persists, it may be best to contact a qualified appliance technician or the manufacturer's customer support for further assistance. They can provide specific troubleshooting steps or arrange for a service visit to diagnose and resolve the issue with your Maytag oven.
Maytag Gemini, double oven electric. Replaced bottom element, replaced thermal sensor and tested power. It still won't heat up. WHY?
There are several potential reasons why your Maytag Gemini double oven electric range is still not heating up after replacing the bottom element and thermal sensor and testing the power. Some possibilities include:
- The wiring or control board may be faulty and preventing the oven from heating up.
- The upper heating element or broil element may also be faulty and need to be replaced.
- The oven may not be calibrated properly, which could cause it to not heat up correctly.
- There may be a problem with the oven's door latch or switch, which could prevent it from heating up.
I got a Maytag Gemini range and the front left burner smells like it's leaking gas when the knobs are all off
If you smell gas coming from your Maytag Gemini range, it is important to take immediate action. Gas leaks can be dangerous and can cause fires or explosions. Here are a few steps you should take:
- Turn off the gas supply to the range: Locate the gas shut-off valve for the range and turn it to the "off" position. This will stop the flow of gas to the appliance.
- Open windows and ventilate the area: Open windows and doors to allow fresh air to circulate. This will help dissipate the gas fumes.
- Do not use any electrical switches, appliances, or light fixtures: The sparks from these devices could potentially ignite the gas.
- Leave the house: If you suspect a gas leak, it is best to evacuate the house and go to a safe location.
- Call for professional help: Contact a gas company or a licensed appliance repair technician to repair the gas leak and check for any other issues with the appliance.
