Err on a Maytag front load washer shows up when you change the cycle while running or start with the door open.
What this code means
Err
Err appears if you change the cycle while the washer runs or start a cycle with the door open.
When Err appears
A Maytag front load washer shows Err in two situations: you try to change or modify the cycle while the washer is running, or you try to start a cycle while the door is open.
Resetting the control
Maytag compares the control to a computer, where a reset can clear problems. The control panel has to be disconnected from power for 5 minutes. For a washer plugged into an outlet, unplug it for 5 minutes and plug it back in.
Other codes to compare
- F0 E0: also handled with a power reset.
- F# E# / F##: a general system code with its own clearing steps.
