How to troubleshoot Whirlpool Maytag MVW6200KW Washer that won't power up?

  Alexa HarrisAug 5, 2025
  If your Whirlpool Washer won't power up, with no keypad response or display, start by checking the power at the outlet and inspect the circuit breakers, fuses, and junction box connections. Also, examine the AC power cord for continuity. A potential cause may be a connection problem between the AC plug and the main control. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the user interface or main control could be the source of the problem.

  If your Whirlpool Washer doesn't start when you press START, it might be due to the lid lock mechanism not functioning correctly. Ensure the lid is fully closed without any interference. Check the connections and continuity between the main control and the HMI. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the user interface or main control could be the source of the problem.
