If you did not mean to set it, turn Sabbath Mode off as your owner's manual describes. ### My Maytag shows 5Ab and the light will not turn on. Is something broken? No. In Sabbath Mode the light ignores the door on purpose. Leaving the mode restores normal lighting. ### Why can I not broil or self-clean on my Maytag showing Sab? Sabbath Mode leaves only Bake available. Turn the mode off and the other cycles return. --- **[Read on the site: Maytag wall oven showing Sab or 5Ab | OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/error-codes/maytag-sabbath/)** **[Book a visit with OvenRepair.center](https://ovenrepair.center/schedule/)**
