Bryan R February 02, 2015 for Model Number MER6771AAW Does the control board control the stove top burners, or just the oven? Thank you.
1 Answer Bryan, The control board does not have anything to do with the operation of the top burners on your unit. The infinite switches that turn the elements on are what controls them. Read More...
Kevin August 15, 2014 for Model Number Maytag gemini mer6770aaw My Maytag Gemini is giving a persistent F1-1 error message which troubleshoots out as a possibly a bad membrane switch. The remedy is listed as "test membrane switch." Is the membrane switch the keypad? The manual doesn't tell me/show me what the membrane switch looks like or how to test it. Can you help me identify where I can find the membrane switch and what I need to do to test it? Thanks for your help. If you see a different solution to my error code, feel free to offer that as well.
1 Answer Kevin, The F1-1 is a runaway temp in upper oven. You will want to check the oven sensor in the upper oven for a resistance of between 1050 and 1100 ohms of resistance. If the sensors resistance does not check out good then replaced the oven sensor. You will want to do the resistance check at the control board and this will also test the wires. If it checks good then the control board is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...

Bob B. March 09, 2014 for Model Number MER6770AAC Maytag Gemini double oven range. Everything works fine but the upper oven light keeps coming on, on it's own, and I can hear the click the oven makes when it is turned on but without a temperature set we are just getting the light. What can cause this?
Fred September 29, 2013 for Model Number mer6770aaw I got error messages F1-1 and F3-1 when operating the upper oven. I was advised to change the temp sensor. The oven still gives the codes occasionally. Does this indicate the control board is failing? Are there any tests that I can do to verify the problem before changing the board?
1 Answer Hello Fred. It may be the touch pad or the board. F1: Temperature runaway. Membraneswitch shorted. Alarm is continuous, ifcancel key is pressed alarm will stop, if faultstill present alarm will repeat. If membraneswitch is disconnected the alarm will onlysound for 30 seconds and stop.Correction: Test membrane switch and ovensensor, if OK, replace control.F3: Open or shorted sensor. The cancel keyresets the control and stops the alarm. Iffault is still present it will reactivate thealarm when a cook mode is chosen.Correction: Check sensor and wiring forshorted or open circuit.

Larry September 10, 2013 for Model Number mer6770aaw The lower oven temp swings 25deg. below and 25deg above setpoint. I have checked thermocouple ohms and it checks good. Also the lower oven light comes on when you use the stove top and stays on till stove top cools down.
1 Answer Hello Larry. If you take the 25 above and the 25 below and add to gether and divide by 2, the oven is working properly on the unit. Read More...
Tripp July 31, 2013 for Model Number MER6770AAQ While cooking on the stove top, (neither of the double ovens were on or had been on that day), an error mssg came up, F9-3. I hit cancel and a short time later error mssg F9-6 appeared. I looked up the code and checked for any obstructions in either door. Reset error code by hitting cancel once again. The same error code reappeared. This time I cut pwr to the range & waited a couple of minutes. After a short time of the pwr being back on the same code appeared. What gives?

Lee May 19, 2013 for Model Number MER6771AAQ On our 12 year old Maytag double oven range, the top Glass Top Range is working fine. However, both ovens quit working and push buttons on control panel (p/n 74004542) do not operate anything. The clock did work till I unplugged the range to check for loose connections at the power cord. I did find a loose connection but did not corrrect the ovens not working. A single BEEP was all the indication I received prior to the ovens not working and the BEEP was sounded during the oven beign OFF. No codes are visible on the touch screen. Question: Do you have any trouble shooting advice you may offer, such as a reset button, fuse, etc? A new panel is $300.00 and new oven is $1300.00. I would like to try fixing this oven. I was able to verify the first transformer is working. The second tansformer is part of the circuit board. My other option is I have a few Circuit Board Repair companies available to me through my work and might have to consider that option. Thank you, Lee
1 Answer Lee, Based on the information provided, it appears that the control board 12001661 has failed and would need to be replaced. You can test the unit if you can set it to bake and check from Bake to L1 on the control board and if there is 240 vac then the control board is bad. Read More...
Bud March 31, 2013 for Model Number MER6770AAB Oven is MER6770AAB Got F1:-2 faults repeatably. Replaced the sensor even though it passed the ohm test in the video. A couple weeks later F1:-2 faults started to occur again. Checked both sensors, OK. Moved the replacement sensor I bought from you to the top from the bottom. Got a F1:-3 fault, but it did not reoccur. Just got a F1 fault and oven stopped heating. Turned off power for one minute to reset oven. Turned back on. Faults cleared and working for now. I watched the video for the ERC. All touchpad functions work. Is the next step the 12001661 clock assembly? Looking for advice before investing more in this 12 year old oven as the 12001661 is very expensive. Bud
1 Answer Bud, Based on the information, if the oven sensor ohm out between 1050 - 1100 at room temp then they are good. You would want to check the wiring of the oven sensor back to the oven control. If the wiring is ok then you would need to replace the clock assembly 12001661. Read More...
Brad March 15, 2013 for Model Number MER6550AAQ I just purchased a replacement clock, part number 12001661, and have two questions about the wiring. 1) My old clock wiring did have a jumper in place as shown in the new style diagram instructions that came with the part. Is this possible and do I just hook it up as instructed? 2) Will the oven work if the wiring is wrong? Basically the instructions seem to indicate that my wiring will not have a black jumper wire but it does. The black comes off a harness just above these connections, then goes to the first black spot, jumpers to the second and then out the back of the stove. Hope you can help.
1 Answer Brad, You unit will still have the jumper and if the unit is not wired properly then it will not operate properly. Read More...
