Hi, the E3 error means that the control board is detecting current going to the motor, but the motor won't turn properly. If the error code comes up all the time as soon as you press the power on button, then it means your control board is bad and reading incorrectly. If it only happens during a cycle, then you need a new motor unfortunately.

    I also was getting E3 on my mah6700 and did replace the motor. I am still getting an E3 code yet it is spinning right now, finishing a cycle on medium speed. How do you get the front panel off of the machine to check the control board connections?

    CHRIS, YOUR BEST BET IS TO PULL THE WASHER OUT AND ACCESS IT FROM THE REAR PANEL, TAKE OUT THE TWO SCREWS ON THE BACK/PLATE.

When I did my laundry,I forgot to put dertegent in it. At the end of the cyle,my maytag 400 4.5 cu, says f21 and the door is locked. What do i do?

Hello,

The F21 error code is displayed when the water didn't drain in the normal time,the usual reason the washer did nto drain with in the normal time is because the filter screen on the pump is clogged. This tip i wrote will show ya how to take apart the washer and clean the filter on the pump.

Its flashing E3 and chiming. and stopped washing

Hi

E3 is an overload error and indicates that the washer motor is not running properly. You can take out some clothes and then restart the cycle by pressing the START/PAUSE button. After this, if the error appears again then check the motor connections, if everything appears fine then the motor should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

My washer has passed all the diagnositc test BUT when running through a simple quick cycle it keeps beeping E3

Hi,

e3 means that the control board is detecting current going to the motor, but the motor won't turn properly. If the error code comes up all the time as soon as you press the power on button, then it means your control board is bad and reading incorrectly. If it only happens during a cycle, then you need a new motor unfortunately.

Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

How do I stop the error E2 code on my washer? I

The E2 shows that there is a motor problem. This can be caused by having an extra heavy load in the machine so take some out and try it. It can also be cause by any iof the buttons being stuck so make sure they are all 'free'. If this fails then you will need to have a new motor and call a repair man unless you can do the job yourself.
