Maytag Washer; Dishwasher Repair – NORTH CANTON, OH (DW model-LDF8574, LDF8072 Or LSDF9962. Washer is MFW9600SQ0)

We responded to a North Canton home where both the Maytag dishwasher and washer had failed on the same day. The dishwasher displayed error code OE while the washer showed error code F11. Two different root causes required targeted repairs to get both appliances running again.

The Problem

The customer contacted us about their Maytag dishwasher giving error code OE and their Maytag washer displaying error code F11. Both appliances had stopped functioning properly, creating a significant disruption to the household’s daily routine.

Diagnosis

For the dishwasher, we found the drain line was gummed up, preventing proper drainage and triggering the OE error code. The washer’s F11 error pointed to a failed motor control board, which controls the washer’s motor functions and communication between components.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: W10756692 — motor control board for the washer
• Work performed: Ran Affresh cleaner through the dishwasher drain line to clear the blockage; replaced the motor control board on the washer
• Result: Both appliances tested successfully with symptoms resolved and normal operation restored

Is It Worth Repairing?

Maytag builds reliable appliances that typically justify repair costs, especially when dealing with specific component failures like control boards or drainage issues. Both of these repairs address core functionality problems that, once resolved, should provide years of continued service from quality appliances.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers and Dishwashers

• Run Affresh dishwasher cleaner monthly to prevent drain line buildup and maintain optimal cleaning performance
• Leave the dishwasher door slightly open after cycles to allow moisture to escape and prevent mold growth
• Clean the washer’s drain pump filter quarterly and inspect hoses for kinks that could strain the motor control board
