What this code means
F6 E2
Communication error: UI cannot hear ACU.
The F6 E2 code on a Maytag dryer is a communication error: the UI cannot hear the ACU. Maytag asks “Did you receive a F6E2 alert?” and answers with a power reset.
Steps from Maytag
- Switch the circuit breaker(s) off and leave them off for 5 minutes.
- Switch the breaker(s) on again.
- Run a time dry cycle.
- Keep an eye on the dryer for 5 minutes to confirm F6 E2 does not return.
When the code stays
If F6 E2 keeps coming back, the reset has not cleared it and a technician should take over.
