Touch and hold LOCK for three seconds to unlock. ### My Maytag elements will not turn on and Lock is lit. What now? Hold the LOCK key for three seconds. The surface areas respond again once the lock is released. ### Why do only Power and Off work on my Maytag glass top? That is how Control Lock behaves when it is set while the top is on. Releasing the lock restores the other keys. --- **[Read on the site: Maytag electric range showing Lock | RangeRepair.center](https://rangerepair.center/error-codes/maytag-lock/)** **[Book a visit with RangeRepair.center](https://rangerepair.center/schedule/)**
