Maytag Error Codes: Washer, Dryer & Dishwasher

Maytag is built by Whirlpool and shares the same control platforms, so Maytag washers, dryers, and dishwashers use the same F# E# codes as their Whirlpool equivalents. The most common Maytag codes are below; the Whirlpool hub covers the same code set in more detail.

⚠ Safety first. Unplug the machine or switch off its breaker before you open any Maytag washer, dryer, or dishwasher panel. Maytag shares Whirlpool’s control platform, but the same rule applies across both: gas, high-voltage, and sealed-system repairs go to a licensed technician. Stop and call a professional if you smell gas or notice any scorching.

Common Maytag codes

Code	Appliance	Meaning / likely cause
F5 E3	Washer	Door/lid won’t lock — lock assembly
