Maytag Error Codes

Maytag is built by Whirlpool and shares the same control platforms, so Maytag washers, dryers, and dishwashers use the same F# E# codes as their Whirlpool equivalents. The most common Maytag codes are below; the Whirlpool hub covers the same code set in more detail.

⚠ Safety first. Unplug the appliance (or switch off its breaker) before touching internal parts. Gas, high-voltage, and sealed refrigerant-system repairs must be done by a licensed professional. If you smell gas or see scorching, stop and call a technician.

Common Maytag codes

Code	Appliance	Meaning / likely cause
F5 E3	Washer	Door/lid won’t lock — lock assembly
F8 E1 (LF)	Washer	Long fill / low water — supply off, kinked hose, inlet valve
