What this code means
F31
F31 (L2, Low or No Line Voltage): a possible problem with the home power supply keeps the heater from turning on.
F31 is an L2 error, meaning Low or No Line Voltage. On a Maytag commercial dryer it indicates a possible problem with the home power supply that keeps the dryer’s heater from turning on.
Steps from Maytag
- Look for a blown household fuse or a tripped circuit breaker. Electric dryers use two household fuses or breakers. Replace the dryer fuse(s), or switch the dryer’s household breaker off for 1 minute and then on to reset it.
- Confirm the power cord is properly installed; the Installation Instructions explain how.
- Start a time dry cycle.
- Monitor the dryer for 1 minute to see whether the code comes back.
