Hello Martin, thank you for contacting us. The washer does not have a temperature sensor. Try resetting the washer by unplugging it from the outlet for at least 1 minute, and then plugging it back in. If it does not solve your issue, you may need to replace the control board, part number PS11723057. We hope this helps.

I am getting error code E3 and F5 at the end of the wash cycle
For model number WTW7040DW0
PartSelect logo
Hi Ivan, thanks for reaching out. Based on our research, the F5 E3 error indicates that there is an issue with the lid lock, part number PS11722981. Before replacing it, we would suggest removing any objects from the lid and clearing any obstructions. If this does not help, then reboot the machine by unplugging the washer and wait two minutes before plugging the machine back in. If the issue still exists, then you may need to replace it. We hope this solves your problem!

Are the screens where water goes into machine removable mine are very dirty and water barely comes in do they pull out or screw out ? Thank you
For model number WTW7040DW0
PartSelect logo
Hello and thank you for writing. Those little screens just pull off on most models, you might need a putty knife to get in the edges in order to do this as debris might hold them down. If you have a model with screws the screw should be right in the center of the screen. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.

Cycle stops and I have a dr code. Using rinse & spin will complete the cycle. Is this the control module?
For model number WTW7040DW0
PartSelect logo
Hello John, Thank you for the question. The DR Error code indicates a Drainage Issue. We suggest checking the Drain Pump and Hoses for a blockage or clog. If everything is clean, you may need to replace the Drain Pump. We hope this helps!

Scratches in Surface
This product comes in a bottle with a brush like Liquid Paper. It goes on incredibly easy. A second coat might be needed. I wanted to prevent rust from setting in so I covered the scratches and dings. The paint is a little brighter since my washer is 10 years old but it still looks great.

Loud grinding noise when the washer was in use.
1.) disconnect power to your washer. Turn off water supply and disconnect from the washer.

open the washer top and remove plastic cap from the wash plate

2.) using 7/16 socket, remove bolt from the wash plate. If you can't remove it with a socket , I recommend using impact wrench.

3.) remove wash plate ( you might need to spray penetrating oil or wd40 inside the bolt hole to loosen it.
Check to make sure the wash plate gear grooves are not worn down, if they are, replace it.

4.) using your Maytag specific spaner nut wrench, remove the spaner nut from the shaft of the gear case. This should be right underneath where the wash plate was. If you can't turn it by hand , use a rubber mallet or hammer to encourage it.

5.) some people remove the wash basket at this point. I don't think it is necessary.

6.) close your washing machine. Tape the top closed to keep it from flying open. Tilt your washer back and prop it up where you have access to the underside of the washing machine.

7) remove motor rotor bolt and pull rotor off of the motor.

8.) disconnect the two wire connectors that supply power to motor. using a socket, remove bolts that are keeping motor attached to the gear case.

9.) Now that the gear case is all the is remaining on the underside, you can remove the 4 bolts that are holding the gear case to the washer. Now try to pull gear case out.

10.) if gearcase will not pull out, lower washer back to upright position. Spray penetrating oil or wd40 around the shaft of the gearcase and allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes. Using a hammer, lightly tap on the shaft of the gearcase and it should now fall out. ( you might have to apply penetrating oil again, or apply more force with the hammer.

11.) reinstall motor to new gearcase. Insert new gear case to the washer. Reinstall bolts and reconnect power supply wires.

12. ReInstall spaner nut inside the washer, reinstall wash plate.
