WASHER DISPLAYS F3-E2 CODE

Oven temperatures fluctuate, over heating, under heating.

I watched your video regarding washer not draining. It shows instructions on how to remove the drum, however the drum I am trying to remove is stuck, Ive tried what your video says and im not sure if I missed anything because no matter what I do, it will not budge. Any suggestions

Hello, I just replaced the defective touch panel. I need to know how to clear the error code on this model. Maytag dishwasher MDB4949SDZ. Thank you, Shawn

NOTE: I placed two black lines on my tub and agitator to observe individual movement.

Initial observations of the Problem:

My top load washer “roared” in either the rinse/spin and completed the complete cycle. (I should have paid better attention to detail.) In the 2nd rinse the washer stopped with water in the tub. I noticed a burning smell and the motor went into thermal shutdown. As I removed the V-belt I noticed much black rubber from the belt( V-belt track was cut). The water pump pulley spun with great difficulty. When I tested the transmission via spinning the transmission pulley counter clockwise (CCW) the tub spun CCW. When I spun the transmission pulley clockwise (CW) the agitator moved CW, however I don’t know it is agitating since I’m doing this task myself.

I believe the water pump pulley bearing cause a lockup such that the V-belt burned rubber. The electric motor recovered from thermal shutdown and turned on after allowing it to cool and with the V-belt removed.

Questions:

1) If the transmission pulley is spun CW what should be seen? Should the agitator spin around the 360 degrees? Would the agitator spin “X” degrees and then restart?

2) Could there be something else wrong with the agitator if it spins and doesn’t agitate?

3) What is the best way to check thrust bearing when the pulley is all black and I don’t see the “markers” the new translucent transmission pulleys contain?

4) Is it possible to just replace the water pump bearing?

Summary:

I know the belt and water pump need fixing or replacing. Questions #1and #2 are the most important since if the transmission is smoked there is a big cost. If you can provide answers to the all questions great?

Thanks in advance,

JP

My washer is stuck. The motor to drain stays on. It still runs with lid opened or closed.

I am having some issue with my Maytag dryer not completely drying clothes.

We watched a few of your videos and have done all of this:
replaced water filter
water comes out of fridge just fine
no ice or water in ice cube trays
bar is not stuck
ice is not stuck in the blue catch bin preventing new ice from being made
water pressure is low where we live, but enough to run fridge
fridge temperature is at 36 which is cool enough, I think you said 38 or cooler
it was literally working perfect 1 day ago, and now just nothing

there is nowhere to run the jumper wire to run the simulation on the ice maker like he talks about in one of the diagnostic videos

We bought this fridge because it was “made in america” and have already had a couple problems with it! Of course now we are out of the warranty! My husband is very handy, so we will order the part from you if we can diagnose it. It just seems like there is no water getting to the tray and none of your videos address this problem, they all talk about there being ice but not ejecting.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! We are very thankful for your help so far!

My Maytag refridgerator quit making ice. It is a French door freezer on bottom style. The water dispensor still works. Thanks to your videos I was able to take out the icemaker and found that there were some ice cubes in it. However they were small and some were almost non existent. I didn’t see any ice jams or froze up lines. We have had the fridge for a little over a year and had no problems. It did this last weekend and messed with it and got it going. But this fix lasted about 3 days. What should i look for next?
Thanks,

Hello,
This unit started skipping the spin/drain cycle several weeks ago (using the 1oclock to 5 oclock section of the timer).
Manual rotation of timer dial to other spin mode locations worked for a while,
Now it will not spin/drain at all.
The last attempt to try I manually manipulated the tub and manually rotated the belt (the transmission and pump spun), a switch retry seemed to get it to work for a second and stopped…. now nothing seems to work.
There is no humming, the agitate runs and timer advances etc., the lid switch seems stops the agitate mode etc.
It seems there is no switch on/current to the motor for the spin action.
I have a voltmeter and can make a direct test power harness etc (saw a youtube that suggested that to test the motor.)
Thanks,
Russ

no power at all.

My Maytag MVWX700XL2 washer starts before the spin cycle starts. Only error code was F9 E1. When it runs through diagnostic test, the spin works but not in normal cycle. Pumps out fine. Pulled everything apart. Cleaned inner drum and pump. No debris found, only some film and a little silt.

My Maytag dryer is tumbling slow and squeaking.

I HAVE A MAYTAG WASHER MVWC6ESWW1 WASHER WON’T DO A SMALL LOAD IT WILL ONLY DO FULL LOADS. I REPLACED THE ATC SWITCH AND IT STILL FILLS ALL THE WAY. THIS MACHINE IS ONE OF THE FIRST DIRECT DRIVE MACHINES THAT HAS THIS NOT SMALL ,MED. LARGE LOADS IT HAS TAP COLD, COOL BRIGHTS,COOL DARKS ,HOT, WARM THIS SWITCH MAKES NO SENSE I EVEN TRIED REPLACING AGAIN STILL THE SAME IS THERE SOMETHING I’M MISSING THE MACHINE WILL FILL ALL THE WAY AND THEN START AGITATING BUT NOT SMALL WOULD APPRECIATE HELP WITH THIS IF POSSIBLE.

step by step procedure to do a diagnostic test?

The soap dispenser on my Maytag dishwasher will not come open during wash cycle.

This particular front load washing machine had the pump in the rear, NO FILTER that I can find.. a rubber bladder hose that runs from the tub to the water pump. I have replaced the water pump, and checked the bladder hose to the pump for blockages. Its totally clean and clear. The drain hose from the water pump is totally clear. The water pump is free of obstruction and the proppellers are in good shape and seem to be working as they should. I’m stumped. Whats next?

Hello

The washer will fill with water just fine but when it starts to wash sometimes it wont start the cycle and then sometimes it will quit in the cycle and it will start a buzzing noise.This will happen in the spin and drain cycles also. Some times you can unplug it from the wall and it will start back up. And sometimes I can tilt the whole machine and it will start back up.
This washer is maybe 5 years old and ever since it was new it would get off balance easily and you will have to rearrange the load. Our old one was over 35 years old Maytag and we never experience problems like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Cliff
