Maytag Range Repair – Canton, OH (MER5730AAQ)

A Maytag range on Maple Avenue Northeast in Canton, OH wasn’t responding to button presses on the control panel. The customer reported that the oven/range control panel/digital display was not responding to button presses, though the clock was on and showed a moving line, and the surface burners worked with their knobs.

The Problem

The customer’s range had a control panel that wasn’t responding to button presses. The digital display showed the clock was on with a moving line, and the surface burners worked fine with their knobs, but the oven controls were completely unresponsive.

Diagnosis

Surface burners were fine, but the oven was not working. During inspection, we found evidence of roaches on the control board. Unfortunately, the control board for this model is no longer available from the manufacturer.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts replaced
• Work performed: Diagnostic inspection revealed roach damage to control board
• Result: Walked due to unavailable replacement part — no charge to customer

Is It Worth Repairing?

When a control board is no longer available for a Maytag range, repair isn’t possible regardless of the appliance’s age or condition. This is unfortunately common with older models as manufacturers discontinue parts after a certain period.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Ranges

• Keep the area around and behind your range clean to prevent pest infestations that can damage electrical components
• Wipe down control panels regularly with appropriate cleaners to prevent buildup that can interfere with button operation
• Check that your range’s ventilation isn’t blocked to prevent overheating of internal components
