Safety first: unplug the washer (or switch off its breaker) before touching filters, hoses or panels. If you smell burning or gas, or see water near the outlet, stop and call a professional.

How to fix Maytag F6E2

  1. Rule out the outlet

    Plug the washer directly into a wall outlet you know works, not a power strip or extension cord. Look over the cord, and if it's damaged, leave the washer unplugged.

  2. Cut the power for 5 minutes

    Leave the washer without power for 5 minutes, then restart and watch for F6E2.

When to call a technician

If F6E2 comes back after a reset, book service. Keep the control panel closed.
