Maytag Premature cycle termination

Clock and timer work, but oven shuts off by itself before cooking is done

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Overheating control area, failing EOC, intermittent door switch, power supply fluctuations

Safety First: Disconnect power before inspecting internal components.

Check ventilation: Ensure vents around the control panel are not blocked.
Inspect cooling fan: Verify the cooling fan runs during high-temperature operation.
Test door switch: A loose or intermittent door switch can cause the oven to think the door opened; test for solid continuity when closed.
Replace EOC: If external causes are ruled out, the control board may be failing and should be replaced.
