5 guides for Maytag
Washers · 4
Guide · WasherClean-washer reminders and clean-cycle codes (CL, rL, F0E7)
These are reminders or load-detected messages, not faults. Run the clean cycle with an empty drum.
Guide · WasherHot and cold water reversed (HC, F0E4, 4C2)
The hoses are swapped at the faucet or at the washer. Swap them; no parts needed.
Guide · WasherTop-load not agitating (fills and drains OK)
On older Whirlpool/Kenmore direct-drive top-loads, fill-and-drain-OK but no agitate/spin is the classic broken motor coupler. On newer models, look at the shift actuator/clutch, lid lock and motor.
Guide · WasherWhirlpool/Maytag VMW top-load: F7E5 / shifter or drive fault
The control did not see the shifter or basket move as expected. Check mechanics and wiring first; the shifter (with its internal position sensor) is the most common replacement.
