Maytag Oven Error Code F9 E0
Last updated:
The oven door lock motor failed to drive the latch.
What F9 E0 means.
F9 E0 on a Maytag oven means the door lock motor did not move the latch in the time the control allows. The board waits for the lock to reach its commanded position, and when it does not the code posts. A worn lock motor or a binding latch are the common causes, and the fault often surfaces during self-clean.
Most common causes.
-
Failed door lock motor
-
Binding or jammed latch assembly
-
Faulty latch position switch
-
Wiring fault to the lock motor
Try this first: safe DIY troubleshooting.
-
Power the oven off at the breaker for five minutes.
-
Restore power and check whether the latch frees.
-
Confirm the door is not blocked or warped.
-
Leave a locked door alone rather than forcing it.
-
Book service to free and replace the latch motor.

Ivan is the only repairman I would ever trust with our appliances! We have used him 3 times (for our dryer, our dishwasher, and most recently our oven). We called him when our oven unexpectedly stopped working and he got us scheduled right away and had it fixed immediately! He is prompt, incredibly knowledgable, very friendly, reasonably priced, and honest! Look no further if you have any appliance repair needs! Thank you again Ivan!! - Kate

Our ice maker in our GE Profile refrigerator stopped working. We contacted several vendors through Yelp and Esquire was quick to respond and were able to come out the next day. Our ice maker was back up and running right away! They were able to buy the proper part and install it all in one day. They were courteous and reasonably priced. I couldn't be more pleased with how it went.
