What 1d11, 1d12, 1d21, 1d22, 3d11, 3d12, 3d21 or 3d22 means

On Maytag electric and gas freestanding and slide-in ranges, the codes 1d11, 1d12, 1d21, 1d22, 3d11, 3d12, 3d21 and 3d22 relate to how the oven reads its own temperature. The trouble may sit in the oven temperature sensor, in the control that reads it, or in the wiring between them. Owners typically see the code appear during preheat or baking, and the oven may heat unevenly, stop early or not start at all. Models like the MER7662WS0 use this style of display.

Common causes of 1d11, 1d12, 1d21, 1d22, 3d11, 3d12, 3d21 or 3d22

Oven temperature sensor reading outside its expected range
Wiring and sensor connector between the oven cavity and control
Oven control board interpreting the sensor signal

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Let the oven cool completely. 2. Turn off the range's circuit breaker for one minute and turn it back on. 3. Monitor the oven for one minute to see if the code displays again. 4. Verify oven operation with a short bake cycle. 5. Leave the sensor probe in the oven wall alone; bending it can change its readings.

! Why to stop there

Resetting power does not show which of the three paths, sensor, wiring or control, is sending the bad reading.
We compare the sensor against a known value and inspect its connector, then tell you the finding and the price before repairing.

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.

1d11, 1d12, 1d21, 1d22, 3d11, 3d12, 3d21 or 3d221d11, 1d12, 1d21, 1d22, 3d11, 3d12, 3d21 or 3d22 questions

What does the oven temperature sensor do?

It is a thin probe inside the oven cavity that tells the control how hot the oven is. The control uses that reading to cycle the heating elements or burner, so a bad reading can upset every cycle.

Why are there so many codes for the same thing?

The control records which reading looked wrong, such as too high or out of range, and picks a matching code. For a homeowner they all lead to the same sensor, control and wiring check.

Can I keep baking if the oven still heats?

We would not rely on it. If the control cannot trust the sensor, temperatures may drift and food can burn or undercook. A short visit costs less than ruined meals and a stressed control.
