Magtag Oven/stove Repair – Homeworth, OH (CWG3100AAB)

A Maytag oven in Homeworth was shutting down mid-cycle and displaying an F3 error code. We diagnosed a failed control board and temperature sensor that were causing the unit to malfunction during cooking operations.

The Problem

The customer reported that halfway through cooking the oven was turning off and the screen was providing an F3 code. This error indicated a temperature sensor malfunction that was preventing normal operation.

Diagnosis

The F3 error code pointed to issues with the oven’s temperature monitoring system. Testing revealed both the control board and temperature sensor had failed, causing the safety system to shut down the unit during cooking cycles.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 12001620R-CNTRL-ELEC — rebuilt control board, 12001655-SENSOR — temperature sensor
• Work performed: Had the control board rebuilt and installed a new temp sensor
• Result: Oven resumed normal cooking operations without error codes

Is It Worth Repairing?

Maytag ovens are built for longevity and this model represents solid mid-tier construction. Control board rebuilds often provide years of additional service life, making this repair economically sound for most homeowners with units under 15 years old.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Ovens

• Keep oven vents clear of grease buildup to prevent overheating that can damage control boards
• Use the self-clean cycle sparingly — excessive heat can stress temperature sensors
• Check door seals periodically to maintain proper temperature regulation
