What this code means
F0 E4
There is an internal communication error on the touch control module.
A Maytag electric cooktop that shows F0 E4 is reporting an internal communication error on the touch control module. Maytag’s product help answers it with one thing to try: a power reset.
Power reset
- Turn off the circuit breaker(s) for the cooktop and leave them off for one minute.
- Turn the circuit breaker(s) on again.
- Monitor the cooktop for one minute to make sure F0 E4 does not display again.
- Verify cooktop operation.
If F0 E4 appears again
A fault inside the touch control module is not something an owner can sort out with the controls. Leave the cooktop alone and let a technician look at it.
