You need to replace the PCB located in the back of the refrigerator. Took me about 20 minutes after I got the part. Then you will have to program the code back into it. Costly but rather easy.
This a common problem with these units the high voltage in the main
control board is the problem, the main control board in the back will
need to be replaced. This runs about 250 dollars for the part. You can order it from this link. http://www.repairclinic.com/Maytag-Refrigerator-Model-MFI2568AES-ID-657261-Parts?n=2
Ours started the same thing today. Called the 800- Maytag service number. They said it is a "known quality issue" with the controller and scheduled maintenace call. If gone unfixed, the controller will probably eventually fail and the frig will quit working all together. From what the lady said, this will be a free fix even though it's passed the warranty period.<!-- from fixya rte -->
there is the HV board on the back under a cover . 2 680uf capacitors @ 35v are likely domed instead of flat on the top and are likely hot. replacing these with an equal value will cure the problem. they are in parallel so 1000 and 470uf will cure it. mine was same model except white. local dealer said no warranty. did not call maytag but he indicated it might help. good luck
The problem is the high voltage control board located behind a panel on the back of the unit & needs to be replaced. In the meantime, on the front left hand side hinge is a cover. Remove the cover, You will see a plug connector. Unplug & re-cap till you receive the replacement door. It'll stop the unit from flapping... Hope this helps... Bill
Budd, if you want to stop the flapping until service shows up to replace the high voltage board do the following: remove the drip tray, remove the 2 screws under the drip tray. From the bottom, where you removed the screws, pull out and up. The whole disp cover lifts off. Unplug the 2 harness going to the board on the dispenser. The refrigerator will still operate normally minus the dispenser. Catriver.
