A Maytag washer in Salem, OH was displaying error codes E01 and F09, prompting our service call to 35283 Salem Grange Road. What we found was a failed motor control board, water leaking, and loose bearings — multiple major failures that made replacement the better choice.

Is It Worth Repairing?

When a washer has multiple major component failures — motor control board, water leak, and loose bearings — replacement is usually the smart financial decision. Maytag washers are generally reliable, but when several expensive components fail simultaneously, the repair costs often exceed the machine’s remaining value.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers

• Clean the door seal and drum regularly to prevent water buildup that can damage electrical components
• Use HE detergent only — regular detergent creates excess suds that stress the motor and control systems
• Don’t overload the washer — excessive weight accelerates bearing wear
