We received a service call for a Maytag washer on Werner Church Road Northeast in Canton, OH. The unit begins filling, then faults out with error code E2/F2 and will not advance past the fill cycle. Our diagnosis revealed a control board failure requiring replacement of expensive components.
The Problem
The customer reported that the unit begins filling, then faults out with error code E2/F2. The washer will not advance past fill cycle. The customer had already checked wiring and float connections but found no visible loose connections.
Diagnosis
Testing confirmed an F2E2 fault code indicating a failure in the control system. This fault requires replacement of the UI (user interface) and/or main control board to restore proper operation.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: No parts replaced
- Work performed: Diagnostic testing confirmed F2E2 fault requiring UI and/or main board replacement
- Result: Customer chose to replace unit rather than proceed with repair
Is It Worth Repairing?
Control board failures on Maytag washers can be expensive repairs, often requiring multiple electronic components. For this model, the cost of UI and main control board replacement may approach or exceed the value of purchasing a newer unit, especially if the washer is several years old.
Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers
- Keep the control panel dry and avoid pressing buttons with wet hands to prevent moisture damage to electronic components
- Use appropriate detergent amounts to prevent excessive suds that can trigger error codes
- Clean the washer tub monthly with Maytag-recommended cleaning products to maintain optimal performance
