    Washers and dryers should not have error codes. Removing the unnecessary electronics being used will fix that problem for good. Go back to the reliable and simple electrical systems, get many years service and reduce the cost!!! All experienced electricians and electronics techs ALREADY KNOW THAT!!!!

    Wonderful video !!! Originally I got ripped off by the appliance repair guy from Sears who came over to check the washer . He ran a two minute self disagnoses and said it would cost over $600 for a new control board to repair so it wouldn't be worth fixing and gave me a 10% off coupon to buy a new one at Sears and charged me the $79 diagnoses fee . After watching a few of these videos I found out it was the actuator so I bought a new one for $25 and now the machine works perfect. Sears pulled a total rip off scam to get you to buy a new one. I complained to consumer affairs but they said it's legal to scam and cheat consumers and they really don't so anything down there but collect their government pay.

    This is what I like is someone who explains even the little things. I didn't even know the manual was inside the washer, kind of silly place to have it. I had already downloaded it and now with this video I hope I can diagnose the problem and fix mine.
    I had already unscrewed the latch and noticed mine is spinning and starts fast then stops and the high agitator speed doesn't seem to be working. Not sure if it's the capacitor or something else. Sounds like the agitator at 1st also isn't in place or off if that makes sense and I checked the screw and it is in tight real tight and its hard to even unscrew so I can't check to see if spindle is worn if that's even the wording.
    Thanks again for the tutorial and wish we could nominate videos for awards because this and all of yours deserves one for content.

      @@demielizabeth18 The best code I could make out was a basket fault. I changed out the shift actuator and was able to wash 2 loads. Then it did it again. I ordered a new cam replacement. When I put it down to replace it I realized the belt has frayed and come off, was also very loose to begin with. So I ordered a belt. After testing the actuator with an ohm meter it reads good. Sigh May have only initially needed a belt. While I was at it I removed the wash plate and cleaned. Inspected the tension rods because I have the jet engine sound when spinning. No rocking and moving across the floor. Just LOUD. The new belt has produced a sporadic squeaky sound in addition to water underneath. I have been confident that the bearings were shot to begin with. When I initially texted a repair shop with my symptoms, they said they didnt think that was the issue and I would have to bring my washer to Them! Did I mention that Im a stubborn, 4’ nothing, 65 yr old blonde? 😂 Tomorrow Im expecting a transmission casing. I relate this to Johnny Cash and his one piece at a time Cadillac song 🎵.

    You do a Great job with this video! I was able to fix our washer with your shared Knowledge. The only problem I had was getting it out of the "calibration/demo mode" I ended up unplugging the washer and held the on/off button in for a minute, plugged it back in and it worked. With your code diagnostics and viewing a few other videos I was able to make a semi-educated guess at what the problem was. It did turn out to be the actuator. I had thought I received the wrong part through "Sears Parts Direct" and brought the new part to an appliance parts store because it didn't match the part on my washer. I was told the part had been replaced with the black plastic version even though they did not look similar. It was true, and the part I had received did fit and worked.
    Hope this may help others too.

      These style machines have some EXTENSIVE features that let you basically test everything and know what's going on to fix them 90% of the time before you actually take a single component apart. Its a little bit.... Complex... To get down, but we deal with these machines at my used appliance shop so much, we just plug them in with electric anymore, and do a pre-screen diagnosis so we can figure out exactly what it needs before it moves down the line for refurbishment, because that 5min test can work out junk that could take a solid hour to figure out by just running the unit.

I figured that now, 9 months later, I've learned enough to do a better, more complete video on this, so I took another crack at it. There's still more I can do better at on this, but the views/watch time is better than the last one, so I'll take it.
      I did the video mainly because I really liked Sears' video on the Kenmore VMW, but it just has how to get it into diagnostic mode, nothing about what all options you have, or the error codes themselves.

Only one thing, I have my Maytag drying now as I pulled tub, hub, and cleaned everything before I put in the new hub and put it back together. What I haven't found are any mentions of grease, silicone, etc when putting the tub back over the shaft. Do you recommend any lubricant/seal grease when putting things back together? PS Your video on the recalcitrant agitator was so REAL! This is my 3rd hub replacement and it was rough getting the agitator out. Hammer, dowel, hard steel hooked probes and a WD40 soak finally worked but my wife was already pricing a new machine. (Maytag Bravos - MVWX655DW1, 8 years old. (3 hubs, 1 actuator so far)

    • @bensappliancesandjunk
      @bensappliancesandjunk  3 роки тому +6

      Motor fault means the motor won't run properly. There are two main things it can be:
      1) The motor is bad, or the electricity isn't getting to it. Check the connectors, and test the motor w/ a multimeter.
      2) The capacitor that is underneath, near the motor is bad and its not jolting the motor w/ electricity when it needs to, to help it start. Look for physical defects (like something popped on the inside), and test w/ a multimeter.
      There can be other things, but we had #2 happen on a Motor Fault at my shop a week ago. Stumped my tech and I told him "Just check the cap real fast". 5 minutes later, the machine was running fine because we replaced the $20 capacitor.

    I want to thank you for your helpful videos, but I'm afraid my Maytag (MVWC465HW2) must be possessed. When it went down, one of your videos led me to a bad shift actuator. Ordered a new one (from you), cleared codes and recalibrated, and it started shifting between modes. But during the spin cycle, it would make a loud whirring sound, then give up trying to spin. I took the clutch assembly apart, and there was nearly no grease. I cleaned, re-greased and reassembled. Cleared codes and ran the calibration mode. Everything worked in calibration and it threw no new codes. Tried to run a load through it and it went back to making that noise and giving up on spin. Through every repair effort, the code has been F0 E5. Rods are good, unit is level, and the load was small and balanced. It always calibrates fine without throwing a code, but fails when you try to wash normally. I'm about to toss this POS out in the yard.

      Its extremely overlooked. The computer board doesn't magically *know* what situation a new component is in. Was the shift actuator in agitate or spin prior to replacement? The lid lock? What wash cycle? So many small things that the system assumes is true/false and it won't be able to conjure the situation until you force the machine to reset.

    I have a Bravo model of Maytag and it would spin out of balance. I just changed the suspension rods and that solved the problem for about 5 washes. Now it's out of balance again. I did the re-calibration and the Spin light stayed on and blinking. Any advice?

    Thx. My Whirlpool WTW4816FW2 top load washer stops during wash and gets stuck in sensing mode=blinking sensing light. I have not been able to reset and or enter diagnostics with water in the machine. If I MT the water it appears to allow me to enter reset and possibly diagnostics. Question is do I have to MT the water again to enter diagnostics? Does this indicate a specific bad part? Thx

    What does it mean when the spin and lid locked light stays on constantly. I just unplugged the washer for over 10 minutes but when it's plugged back in the spin and lid locked lights turn on without any other input Also, I think it gives a F7E5 code but the the other lights being on make it confusing

All of my lights aside from the locked light, flash green then nothing happens. Anyone know whats up?

    This washer is a pain in the butt with the load balance,constantly have to balance the load to keep the washer from shaking out of control ! Does anybody else have this issue? Otherwise great washer. However I have been able to get past the lock, by using drummer tool to cut plastic away on lock switch on base part of the switch! Because of having to open washer to hand balance load , don’t have to wait or fight getting door to unlock.

    I have this washer and its 5yrs old. The unit is beginning to make a screeching sound that gets louder as the rinse/spin cycle winds down in speed until it stops. Just after it stops i reach in and turn drum and it screeches a bit while its still hot but after an hour i reach in and it dosent screech and turns fine by hand. I suspect something worn between the drum/tub and shaft. I cant find a drawing that shows the parts that might be causing this, any ideas?

    My centennial fills with water, then the fill light flashes and it does nothing. If I wait a certain amount of time, the lights will go out and it will drain the water again.
    When I checked error code, only the fill light flashes.
    When I set it to automatic checks, the lid doesn't lock, and the basket doesn't spin. It fills with hot and cold and I believe I hear the agitator moving, but no spin. Idk what to do.
