What this code means
E2
Maytag lists this code but states no cause, only reset steps.
E2 on the display
Neither the dryer listings nor the commercial dryer listings name a cause for E2. They agree on one remedy, a power cycle.
- Switch the dryer’s breaker(s) off and leave it dark for 5 minutes.
- Flip the breaker(s) on again.
- Begin a timed dry cycle.
- Keep an eye on the dryer for one minute, looking for a repeat of E2.
A repeat means it is time to schedule service.
