What 1c1c or 1c2c Means
The 1c and d code families belong to a different Maytag range control platform, and 1c1c and 1c2c are published on it as a possible problem with the user interface or keypad, or the associated wiring. If your range shows codes in this format, it is not using the F#E# scheme and the two should not be read across.
Common Causes of 1c1c or 1c2c
- Grease or spills on the keypad
- Keypad connector loose
- Keypad failed
- Wiring between keypad and control damaged
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Clean the console thoroughly and dry it, since keypad contamination is named among the causes. Press Cancel to clear the code, then switch the range off at its breaker for a minute, restore power, and start a bake cycle to see whether it returns. Press each key and note which respond. A code in this format is worth writing down exactly as shown, because the character pattern is what identifies the platform to a technician, and a code copied down as F1C1 instead of 1c1c sends the diagnosis in the wrong direction.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- A range runs on a high-current circuit and its control sits behind a panel with live terminals.
- On a gas range the burner and the gas connection share the space behind the console with the wiring.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
