What Flashing Time, Clock, 12:00, Power Loss or Enter Time means

A flashing Time, Clock, 12:00, Power Loss or Enter Time message on a Maytag built-in wall oven is not an error. It is what the display shows when power is first supplied to the oven, or after a power interruption or failure. The control has lost the time of day and wants it set again. Press CANCEL to clear the display, then set the time of day. Your owner's manual describes the steps for your model. The oven itself is fine.

Common causes of Flashing Time, Clock, 12:00, Power Loss or Enter Time

A power interruption or outage
The breaker being switched off
A brief power flicker in the house

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press CANCEL to clear the display. 2. Set the time of day as shown in your owner's manual. 3. If the message returns often, note when it happens and what else in the house loses power. 4. Check whether the oven's breaker has tripped.

! Why to stop there

Frequent resets can point to a supply problem rather than the oven
If the clock keeps losing time without any power loss, the control needs a look
We write down the price first, and give a 30-day workmanship warranty on repairs

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.

Flashing Time, Clock, 12:00, Power Loss or Enter TimeFlashing Time, Clock, 12:00, Power Loss or Enter Time questions

Is this a repair issue?

No. It is normal after a power interruption. Set the clock and carry on. Only if it keeps happening without any power loss should we look at the oven.

Will I lose my settings?

The time of day is lost, and any cycle in progress stops. Set the time again. Other settings may also need checking, so look at them before cooking.

The clock resets every day. Why?

Something may be cutting power, such as a loose breaker or supply issue. If other devices keep time and the oven does not, we can test the oven's control.
