What this code means
F2 E3
F2 E3 may indicate an issue with the appliance control unit, user interface or associated wiring (top load).
F2 E3 is listed for Maytag top-load washers. The alert indicates there may be an issue with the appliance control unit, the user interface or the wiring that connects them.
Reset first
Maytag’s own wording is that resetting the control can sometimes solve the issue, much like a computer. With the washer plugged into an outlet, unplug it for 5 minutes and then plug the unit back in.
Compare with
F2E3 is spelled without the space and describes a mismatch of main control and user interface. F2 E4 and F2 E5 each point to the interface or its wiring.
