How to troubleshoot Maytag Washer that won’t run or fill?
- DDennis DonovanAug 21, 2025
If your Maytag Washer won’t run, fill, or stops working, and the wash light stays on, ensure the power cord is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet and that there is power to the outlet. Avoid using an extension cord. Also, make sure the lid is closed, as the washer won't run otherwise. The washer may pause during certain phases or to reduce suds. If the washer is tightly packed, remove some garments and rearrange the load evenly around the washplate, ensuring garments aren't directly over the center. Add only 1 or 2 additional garments after the washer has started, and do not add more water. Use only HE detergent to prevent suds from slowing or stopping the washer.
