What Call Service or Press Cancel to Reset means

This is a text message rather than a number, and it appears on Maytag electric and gas freestanding and slide-in ranges like the MER7662WS0. The control shows Call Service or Press Cancel to Reset when it has noticed an error and does not name it. Pressing Cancel is the first step. If Call Service stays on the display after that, the control wants power reset. A message that returns means the underlying condition is still there.

Common causes of Call Service or Press Cancel to Reset

  • Control that logged an error it could not clear itself
  • Power disturbance during a cycle
  • Wiring or a circuit the control checks at startup
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press the Cancel button or pad to reset the display. 2. If Call Service is still shown, turn the range's circuit breaker off for one minute. 3. Turn the breaker on again. 4. Start a bake cycle. 5. Monitor the oven for one minute to see if the message comes back.

! Why to stop there
  • The message is generic, so a clean reset does not tell us which circuit raised it.
  • We read the control's behavior over a full cycle and inspect the wiring, then explain the finding and quote the repair before we start.
Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
Call Service or Press Cancel to ResetCall Service or Press Cancel to Reset questions
What should I press first?

Press Cancel. The display asks for exactly that, and it clears many one-time messages. Only if Call Service remains should you move on to the breaker reset.

Why does the message not name a part?

The control only knows an error occurred, not which part caused it. That is why we test the circuits behind it instead of guessing at a replacement.

Can I use the range while the message appears?

We suggest waiting. If the message clears after a reset and a bake cycle runs normally, watch it for a day or two. If it returns, call us.
