Maytag maxima washer door locked flashing.

Nothing else will appear to be happening with the machine during this time. Our maytag maxima steam washer has a flashing yellow light next to door locked the door won t open and the machined cannot be turned on. At the start of a cycle the washer attempts to lock the door 6 times. Door not completely closed due to interference.

If door cannot be locked the washer goes into pause mode and a code is generated. Pull on this tab to manually unlock the door. Reconnect power to washer plug in. The washer will go into a hold and drain routine for 8 minutes.

After 8 minutes the door will unlock. Plug the washer back in and hopefully the board reset. Pausing the wash cycle is how it can be disabled. Check door lock mechanism for damage misalignment or foreign objects.

The lid lock is a default feature of your maytag front loading and top loading washer to prevent opening the appliance while the cleaning cycle is in progress. First it had a code blinking that i looked up and it was for the water so i turned it on and now it is making a humming noise and the door is locked and that is all it will do. Now you can reach down to the bottom of the door latch where there is a 1 round plastic tab. During this period you will be able to hear the pump running.

Run a drain and spin cycle. The door should unlock after 60 seconds. A lock icon appears on the front of the washer s control panel to indicate the lid is locked and also displays the current progress of the cleaning cycle depending on the model of your maytag washer.
