    We have a Maytag Bravos that is not showing an error code but still doesn’t work. When turned on as usual, by pressing power, selecting the dryer setting (right now it’s a 24 minute rapid dry), pressing start and the dryer beeps when I press the button but will not spin. The light above “sensing” is lit and the timer counts down as if it’s running a normal load, but again it doesn’t spin. We’ve checked both buttons in the door lining and they’re fine and working. Any advice is greatly appreciated since it’s Saturday and we have work and school on Monday.

    Hi,
    My power went out briefly the other day. My dryer flashed what I believe was F73 exactly when the power returned. I have not been able to reproduce the code. My timer will not come on unless I turn the dial to steam. The dryer will not come on but all other lights and noises work. Any ideas?

  3. Richard Seil says:

    My bravos dryer when started stays on “sensing” for 30 seconds. It then repeatedly flashes a “F” then a “1” but will not run. The error codes listed in my owner’s manual and on the website identify a solid “F01” error code, but not an alternating “F” and “1”. Are they the same?

  4. Christopher Dale Heufelder says:

    We have the Bravos XL washer/dryer set, and our dryer is giving us from time to time codes e03/f03 alternating, and sometimes will not dry a load, but can restart and will continue to dry. Cannot find any info on these codes, other than maytag says when e code followed by f code to contact a maytag service person. Any help will be appreciated.

    Have a Maytag Bravos XL dryer that won’t run.
    I can’t figure out how to find the error codes.
    How do you get them to be displayed?

  6. Richard says:

    I own a Maytag MVWB800VQ0 washer (8 years old).
    When I go into the diagnostic mode using the 3 seconds on 3 seconds off, 3 seconds on, 3 seconds off, 3 seconds on method, and after all the lights come on and the 88 appears, I get an error code that was stored in memory.
    The error was fixed and the machine runs fine now, but when I go into the diagnostic mode the error is still showing up.
    Unplugging the machine for 1/2 hour did not erase the stored error code.
    What button sequence do I need to use to erase all old stored error codes?
    How do I clear the stored error code in memory on this machine?
