Yes it did help me with exactly what I needed to learn. 👍 But imma gripe tho... As far as I'm concerned, if I pay $800 for a new washing machine, I shouldn't be having to do a damn thing except wash my clothes

[@posterboyrob]

Great videos. Thank you!

[@daddydiygrilling]

My pleasure. Appreciate you!

[@christinepemberton5077]

Power comes on but i can't get any buttons/lights on the control panel to do anything

[@daddydiygrilling]

It might be an issue with the control panel. It might be best for a professional to take a look at it.

[@christinepemberton5077]

@daddydiygrilling we have aluminum wiring in our house. It's very old and we're renting. It's blowing anything we connect to that has a control panel. 😢

[@michaelc.uptonpersonalacco5074]

Will the errors codes return if the errors still exist? I feel like I have old error codes in my system as I've made some replacements to parts.

[@daddydiygrilling]

Yes, error codes will typically return if the underlying issue that triggered them still exists, even after clearing the codes. If you've made replacements or repairs, it's a good idea to clear the old codes from the system to see if any reappear. This will confirm whether the issues have been resolved or if further troubleshooting is needed.

[@eliseannicharico5750]

What if I can’t clear the codes? I can see the codes, but they will not clear! Why? ( Codes are: F5E1- lid switch fault, lid is up F2E1- UI Stuck Button F0E3- overloaded ) Help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

[@daddydiygrilling]

If the error codes won’t clear, it’s often because the underlying issues causing the errors have not been resolved. Here’s what each error means and what steps you can take to fix them: 1. F5E1 - Lid Switch Fault (Lid is up): • This error indicates a problem with the lid switch. First, make sure the lid is properly closed and latched. • If the lid is closed and the error persists, check the lid switch for damage or loose connections. The switch might need to be replaced if it’s defective. 2. F2E1 - UI Stuck Button: • This error means that one of the buttons on the control panel is stuck or not functioning correctly. • Inspect the buttons on the control panel and ensure none are physically jammed. Press all the buttons individually to check for normal function. • If a button is unresponsive, you may need to replace the control panel or have it repaired. 3. F0E3 - Overloaded: • This indicates the washer detected an overloaded drum. Remove some of the items to reduce the load size and try running the washer again. • If the code remains, check if the drum can spin freely. If not, there may be a mechanical issue. Clearing the Codes Once you’ve addressed the issues, try clearing the error codes: • Step 1: Unplug the washer for 5-10 minutes to reset it. • Step 2: Plug the washer back in and run a diagnostic cycle (refer to the user manual for your model). • Step 3: If the codes still won’t clear, double-check that all the repairs or adjustments were properly completed. If the errors persist after troubleshooting, the control board might need to be inspected by a professional, as it could be retaining the codes due to a malfunction.

[@JTassy-bn3lw]

I have error codes coming up -F9-E2 and F2-E1 can you please help? Won't spin and drain! This just started after two loads of laundry !

[@daddydiygrilling]

The error codes you’re seeing indicate common issues with draining and sensor communication. Here’s what they mean: • F9-E2: This error points to a long drain time issue. It typically means that the washer is taking too long to drain. This could be caused by a clogged or kinked drain hose, a clogged pump filter, or a malfunctioning drain pump. Steps to troubleshoot: 1. Check that the drain hose isn’t kinked or clogged. 2. Remove and inspect the pump filter (if your model has one). 3. Check for any debris in the drain pump or around the impeller. 4. If none of these resolve the issue, the drain pump may need to be replaced. • F2-E1: This code usually means there’s an issue with the user interface or control board. It could indicate a loose connection or a defective control board. Steps to troubleshoot: 1. Unplug the washer for about 5-10 minutes to reset the control board. 2. If the issue persists, you may need to inspect the wiring connections between the user interface and the control board for any loose or damaged cables. 3. In some cases, replacing the control board or interface may be necessary. If you’re unsure about performing these checks, it may be best to consult a technician or refer to your washer’s service manual. Hope this helps!

I'm in the process of calling a technician thank you for getting back, just wondering if buying a new washer would be cheaper? Thanks again 🙏

[@daddydiygrilling]

Your issue might be the drain pump. Check out these two videos… How to Replace Drain Pump on Maytag Bravos XL MCT Washing Machine | Drain Problems | MVWB835DW1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJjSaYGkZpKbrKM How to Test Drain Pump: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGSvhqirmLyXrrssi=ot9IhQi0yI-MXW97

[@maryellenwilliams8751]

This won’t work for me as the machine will not turn off

[@daddydiygrilling]

if your Bravos XL MCT washer won’t turn off, you can try a hard reset to regain control. Follow these steps: 1. Unplug the Washer: Disconnect it from the power source for at least 5 minutes. This allows the control board to reset. 2. Plug Back In: Reconnect the washer to the power source. 3. Perform the Diagnostic Sequence (if the washer now powers on properly): Follow the instructions in the video to retrieve and clear error codes. If the washer is still unresponsive or won’t turn off even after being unplugged, there may be an issue with the control board or a stuck button. In that case, contacting a repair professional or Maytag support would be the next step. Hope this helps.

[@danielchavez5927]

My washer won’t clear codes.

[@juliescott3201]

Ours keep popping up and saying F5

[@daddydiygrilling]

You can do an Internet search on your make and model of washer to see what that error code means.

[@DavidLuera-e7c]

Can’t get the codes to show on the screen

[@daddydiygrilling]

It should work. You might have an electrical or circuit board related issue.

[@DavidLuera-e7c]

Codes won’t come out on screen

[@daddydiygrilling]

It should work. You might have an electrical or circuit board related issue.

[@cindyleewood1]

Doing the sequence does nothing. There is no response from my washer at all

[@daddydiygrilling]

Sounds like you might have another problem. Power might not be getting to the control panel.

[@jordanbaker3032]

Me neither. Did you find a solution???
