Washing Machine wont power up

I plug in my Maytag MAH8700A Front Loading Washing Machine into a confirmed working outlet, no lights or sounds come on, whether I turn the knob or press any buttons. Please help!

My roommate and I are very capable and have almost any tool we may need, so if you would like to walk us through it over the phone we would be greatly appreciative.

Check whether the power plug of machine is good, connections, fuse, main wire, etc. All good, then try below:

Plug off the wall socket. Open up the machine. Remove, reseat and reconnect every connector at least 3 times. Remove the motor control board, spray it down with electronic cleaner along with all connections by disconnecting them, spraying them down. Disconnect and connect a few times to ensure good contact.. This normally works.

Washer door latch will not open. there is no power to the machine at all. outlet works.

If you remove the bottom panel in front you can reach up on the right hand side to near the middle of the door you will feel a tab coming out of the door lock switch. Pull down and the door should release.

Error code ''suds'' on maytag front loading washer

Press Chime and Extra rinse keys for three seconds or until the control beeps. You are now in service mode and your machine should say a new error code. Depending on what that code is, you might be able to reset your machine by unplugging it, and replugging it in. if your codes are now clear, try running machine on spin only or rinse cycle. DO NOT add more soap!!! If this corrects your problem, try running a load with out soap. You may have a lot of extra soap in your machine.

How to restart an interrupted front loading washer

try unpugging for a minute and then plugging it back in to reset cpu board, if this doesnt work make sure power is getting to outlet, easiest way i know is with night light in same outlet, if u have a light trhen u have a cpu problem some of these units came with a five year warranty on the control board, u would have to read your warranty in your manual to find out.

My Maytag front loading washer does not fully rinse cloths MAH8700A. I purchased this washer about 6 months ago. I usually wash small loads but have noticed it doesnt matter what size load. When first...

Is the drain path free-flowing? That is, does the water eject freely during spin/rinse? Maybe there's a restriction in the line, or it's too high above the washer.
