Maytag Washer Lines and Features
What Makes Maytag Washer Repairs Different
Top load HE models use auto-sensing, spinning slowly to estimate the load before adding water in stages, so the water level can look lower than owners expect. Source: Maytag Product Help - Auto Sensing in a Top Load HE Washer
The washer will only run and spin when the lid or door switch senses it is fully closed, and the lid or door locks at the start of a cycle. Source: Maytag Product Help - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
Common Maytag Washer Problems
- Washer not draining or not spinning. Maytag says to confirm the lid or door is fully shut and the load is balanced, then check for oversudsing, a kinked or clogged drain hose, standpipe height and, on some front loaders, a clogged drain pump filter. Source: Maytag Product Help - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
- Washer odor. Maytag links odor to skipped cleanings, wet loads left sitting and too much detergent or softener, and recommends regular washer cleaning and moving loads out promptly. Source: Maytag - How to repair a washing machine (top load)
Reading a Maytag Washer Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| F8E1 | Top load: the washer is not detecting the right amount of incoming water. Source: Maytag Product Help - F8E1 - Error Code |
| F5E2 | Top load: the lid lock cannot engage, often because something is obstructing the lock area. Source: Maytag Product Help - F5E2 - Error Code |
| F5 E2 (front load) | Front load: the door is not locking properly; make sure it is fully latched and nothing is caught in it. Source: Maytag Product Help - F5 E2 - Error Code (front load) |
Maytag Washer Problems Worth a Service Call
- Washer will not spin, or clothes come out soaking wet
- Washer will not start or the lid or door stays locked
- Loud banging, shaking or walking during the spin
What a Washing Machine Technician Checks
Owner Care for Maytag Washers
- Run the Clean Washer cycle with a washer cleaning tablet about once a month, or when the clean washer light comes on or odor appears; without that cycle, use the hottest, highest water setting. Source: Maytag Product Help - Cleaning Washers with affresh
- Use only HE detergent in HE washers and measure it per the detergent maker's directions, since too much causes oversudsing, poor rinsing and residue. Source: Maytag Product Help - HE Detergent use in a Washer
