Maytag Washer Repair (Model MVWB835DW2) – North Canton, OH

A Maytag washer in North Canton had stopped making its normal completion signal, leaving the homeowner wondering if something was seriously wrong. When we arrived to check the MVWB835DW2, we found the unit was functioning perfectly — except for one disabled setting.

The Problem

The customer reported that their Maytag washer had stopped making the audible signal that normally alerts them when a cycle is complete. They were concerned this might indicate a control board failure or other major issue. The washer was otherwise operating normally through all cycles.

Diagnosis

After checking the control panel and running test cycles, we discovered the audible noise alert had simply been disabled in the washer’s settings. This can happen after power outages or when someone accidentally presses the signal button while adjusting other controls. The washer’s mechanical and electrical systems were all functioning correctly.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: None required
• Work performed: Reset washer by unplugging for 30 seconds, then restored power and re-enabled audible signals
• Result: Washer now provides normal completion alerts and all functions verified working

This Maytag MVWB835DW2 is a solid mid-range top-load washer that typically provides many years of reliable service. Since this issue required no parts and only a simple reset, it’s definitely worth keeping this unit running.
