What Makes Maytag Washer Repairs Different
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 leaking. Maytag points first to loose inlet hose connections or missing hose washers, then to the drain hose and a backed-up household drain, and to clothes added mid-cycle that raise the water over the tub. Source: Maytag Product Help - Leaking Water Underneath - Washer

| F5E3 | Top load: lid lock problem; Maytag suggests a five-minute power reset first. Source: Maytag Product Help - F5E3 - Error Code |
| F5E1 | Top load: lid switch problem; the lid may not be fully closed or something is blocking the switch. Source: Maytag Product Help - F5E1 - Error Code |
