Maytag MTW5900TW Top Load Washer Questions & Answers
MAYTAG TOP LOADING MACHINE NOT DRAINING
HI, check the following to address this issue.
1. Clogged drain line or water pump
Check to see if there's something stuck inside the pump or the drain hose connected to the pump (pump is usually located at the bottom and towards the back of the washing machine).
2. Water Pump
If the drain line isn't clogged, you may have a problem with the water pump such as a frozen pulley or a broken impeller. If that's the case replace the water pump. Note: if you have a belt driven washer, check the belt(s) for cracks, as this would be a perfect time to replace the belt(s) if needed.
**The most common issue will be an obstructed hose or, line
Water not draining!
Check for a kinked or clogged drain line. The hose can be removed from the pump and the pump can be checked for clogs. Take a flashlight and look into the suction port of the pump and look for any obstructions (like the occasional stray sock, for example). Also check the pump impeller for broken or missing blades and ensure that the impeller spins freely. If not, the pump is defective. Hope this helped and best wishes.

How do I drain a maytag washing machine?
If the machine will not operate to drain the water, gravity will do the job for you. Simply remove the drain hose from the standpipe, and lower it to a floor drain if one is near enough to the machine. If no floor drain, you can catch the water from the hose into a large bucket for disposal. You will need to empty the bucket numerous times before the washer is empty.

remember that when removing the drum with the wrench make sure you turn it anti-clockwise and wedge it in with a piece of wood between the spider and the plastic drum so when you it the wrench with a hammer,as this will be very stiff the metal spider will not turn upon trying to turn the wrench,hope this helps yu ?

Maytag MVW7232HW0 top load, error codes and condensation on control panel when using hot watet
1. ERROR CODES: CHECK THE USER MANUAL FOR THE WASHER TO IDENTIFY THE SPECIFIC ERROR CODES BEING DISPLAYED. THIS WILL HELP YOU PINPOINT THE ISSUE AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION, SUCH AS RESETING THE WASHER OR CONTACTING CUSTOMER SUPPORT.
2. CONDENSATION ON CONTROL PANEL: IF YOU'RE EXPERIENCING CONDENSATION ON THE CONTROL PANEL, IT COULD BE DUE TO THE HOT WATER TEMPERATURE OR THE HUMIDITY LEVEL IN THE ROOM. TRY USING WARM WATER INSTEAD OF HOT WATER TO SEE IF THAT REDUCES THE CONDENSATION. YOU CAN ALSO TRY INCREASING VENTILATION IN THE ROOM TO HELP DISPERSE THE MOISTURE.
Fix for error code E02F06 on Maytag mhw7000xw front load washer
I found this reference on the web ... from a repair technician on a Maytag Maxima>>>
So I'm really sorry to bring you this bad news, but let me explain your error codes. F06 E02 is a communication error between your MCU (motor control unit) and your CCU (central control unit). You'll want to remove the top panel, the control panel, and then the front panel of the washer and make sure the wire connections to the motor control unit below the tub are all secure. If everything checks good, you'd need to have the MCU replaced.
From a different reference on a similar Maytag MHW6000XW2 ... also indicating communication issue
Usually ... hidden somewhere on the inside of the washer you will find the service technician paperwork which has all sorts of additional detail.
Helpful?
Good luck on your troubleshooting!
Maytag top loading washer with UL code
Leveling: Ensure the washer is properly leveled. An unbalanced load can trigger the UL (unbalanced load) code. Use a level to check if the machine is sitting evenly on the floor.
Load Distribution: Make sure the clothes are evenly distributed in the drum. An imbalanced load can cause the UL code to appear.
Calibration: Some models have a calibration mode that can be accessed through the control panel. Running a calibration cycle might help the washer to detect load balance more accurately.
Electronics: There could be an issue with the control board or wiring harness. Inspect these components for any visible damage or loose connections.
Professional Service: If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it may be time to consult with a professional appliance repair technician who can diagnose and fix the problem more accurately. They may have specialized tools and knowledge to pinpoint the exact cause of the UL code.
Where is the counterweight in my Maytag washer model MVWC565FW2
If yours is a top loader it will mounted near the drum inside the machine. It will be a shaped block of concrete curved to sit close the actual drum. The most like places will be at the front, nearest you when your putting clothes in it, at about 3/4 of the way off the floor. It could also be in a similar place at the back of the machine.
