Having a washing machine that won’t start is never a fun experience. When repair services arrive, you’ll have a huge pile of laundry and a hefty repair bill.
However, if you fix your washer yourself, you most likely won’t have to worry about any downtime. Believe it or not, repairing a malfunctioning washer is easier than you think.
Even with zero repair knowledge or experience, our easy-to-follow guide can walk you through all the steps and get your washer back up and running in no time.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to troubleshoot a Maytag washer that won’t start. We’ll delve into all the possible causes and teach you how to repair each one.
Why won’t my Maytag washer start?
A Maytag washer that won’t start most likely has an electrical issue. Its root cause could be as simple as an unplugged cord or a tripped circuit breaker.
If the power source isn’t the issue, a faulty lid switch or control board could be causing the problem. In such cases, a replacement is necessary.
Before performing any repairs on your Maytag washer, here are a few things that you can do to try and resolve the problem.
- Verify that the power cord is plugged in.
A washer that won’t start isn’t always malfunctioning. Sometimes, its power cord gets knocked out, preventing the washer from receiving ample power supply to start.
- Confirm that the outlet has power.
Unplug the washer’s power cord. Then, plug in another electronic device to confirm that the outlet has power and has no problems.
If the outlet has no power, it could just be a tripped circuit breaker, which we will delve into in our guide below. However, if you’re certain that its lack of power isn’t caused by a tripped breaker, call a licensed electrician.
Keep reading our guide below to find out other possible causes of this error. We will explain everything you need to know to fix the issue yourself.

Tripped Circuit Breaker
A clear indicator of a tripped circuit breaker is when power goes out in one part of the house instead of the entire household. This is a safety precaution to prevent the circuit from further overheating, which may increase the risks of fire or electrocution.
Most of the time, resetting the circuit breaker will fix the issue, but not when other underlying electrical issues need to be resolved. One such example is when the circuit is overloaded.
Ideally, you have to plug the washing machine, as well as other major appliances, into a dedicated circuit to prevent overloading.
Solution: First, turn off the lights and unplug all the appliances and electronics connected to the circuit. Follow these steps to reset it.
- Step 1: Locate the circuit breaker where the washer is connected.
- Step 2: Turn the switch to the OFF position.
- Step 3: After a few seconds, flip the switch back to the ON position to reset the circuit.
- Step 4: Plug in your Maytag washer’s power cord. Then, check if it turns on and run a test cycle.
Observe the power for a few minutes. If the circuit doesn’t trip, your washer most likely doesn’t have any issues and should function properly from here on out.
- Step 5: Turn the lights on one at a time. Then, plug in the rest of the appliances and electronics one at a time.
If an appliance or light causes the circuit to trip, it may have faulty wiring, which will require servicing.
Contact a licensed electrician who can help you diagnose and resolve the issue.
Quick Note:
Refrain from connecting multiple major appliances into the same circuit to prevent it from tripping again.
All large appliances are required to have their own dedicated circuit.
Engaged Control Lock
Maytag washers have a Control Lock function that prevents curious hands (or paws) from making unintentional changes to the wash settings. It does so by locking the controls, preventing any further inputs into the system until the feature is disengaged.
Simply put, there is nothing wrong with your washer and it doesn’t require any fixing. In a few simple taps of a button, you can disengage the Control Lock and get back to washing the laundry.
Solution: To turn off the Control Lock function on a Maytag washer, follow these steps:
- Step 1: Press and hold the Control Lock button for 3 seconds. A countdown timer should appear on the washer’s display once the button has been engaged.
- Step 2: If the timer doesn’t appear, click on the Power button to turn off the washer. Click it again to turn on the appliance, then repeat Step 1.
- Step 3: If the washer still won’t start, reset it by unplugging its power cord or turning off the power at the circuit breaker.
After a minute or two, restore power to the washer. Repeat Step 1.
- Step 4: Once unlocked, push the Start button to pause the cycle, or press the power button to turn off the washer.
Contact a licensed electrician who can help you diagnose and resolve the issue.
Quick Note:
On Maytag washers, you can tell if the Control Lock function is engaged if the display shows an LOC or LC error code. It may vary per unit, so it’s best to check the user manual to verify this.
Overloaded Drum
If the washer does not fill or start, the load might be too much for your washing machine. You can confirm this by doing the palm trick.
Just stick a hand inside the drum. If there isn’t enough space for it to fit, then it is overloaded.
To get your washer to start, you must remove a few items and redistribute them evenly around the drum.
Solution: Always check the laundry tags on your clothes to verify that they are machine washable.
- Step 1: Empty the pockets of your laundry before loading them into the drum.
- Step 2: Add heavily soiled items first. Place items one at a time to prevent them from getting tangled.
- Step 3: Evenly distribute the laundry around the wash plate.
- Step 4: Push the Start button.
Quick Note:
Never add more items to the drum once the washer starts operating. This is to prevent the drum from getting unbalanced and overpacked.
Dirty Door Gasket
Does your washer beep when you press start? It could indicate an open door.
If the door appears closed and nothing is sticking out of it, preventing it from latching shut, there might be something trapped inside the rubber gasket. The door seal keeps the water in the tub during operations.
Over time, lint, hair, and other foreign objects can get lodged into the rubber seal around the washer’s door. Eventually, the build-up will prevent the door from closing shut.
Most washing machines, including Maytag models, won’t run until it detects that the door is closed. This is a safety feature to prevent flooding and other potential disasters.
What you’ll need:
- Affresh Machine Cleaning wipes
Solution: To clean a dirty door gasket on a Maytag washer, follow these steps:
- Step 1: Open the washer door.
- Step 2: Carefully pull back the door seal and inspect the entire area for dirt build-up and other possible obstructions.
- Step 3: Remove any small items like coins or buttons that might have gotten stuck in the door seal.
- Step 4: Get your Affresh wipes. Then, clean the entire surface of the rubber seal using the textured side of the wipes.
Faulty Lid Switch
Whether the switch has a mechanical or electronic issue, it can’t be repaired. You can, however, replace it with a brand-new component, which you can get from Maytag and other retail stores.
The best way to determine if the lid switch is defective is through a continuity test. Using a multimeter, the test will determine if the component has an open or closed circuit.
If the circuit is open, it means that the lid switch has no continuity and is defective. On the bright side, you can perform the fix yourself.
What you’ll need:
- ¼” nut driver
- Holding strap
- Tape
- Flathead screwdriver
- New lid switch
Solution: Test the lid switch for continuity to confirm that it is defective and needs replacement. Follow these steps:
- Step 1: Unplug the washer or turn off the power at the circuit breaker.
- Step 2: Shut off the water supply to the washer.
- Step 3: Disconnect the drain and water supply hoses. Tape the door shut.
- Step 4: Move the washer away from the wall to access the back panel.
- Step 5: Use the ¼” nut driver to unfasten the screws on the small cover and the rear access panel. Set the cover and panel aside.
- Step 6: Unplug the lid switch’s wire connector. Refer to your user manual, if necessary.
- Step 7: Remove the plastic retainer clip. Then, squeeze the two prongs on the wire harness retainer and push it down to release it.
- Step 8: Use the ¼” nut driver to remove the two screws securing the top panel.
- Step 9: Pull the washer’s top forward and lift it up until the tabs on the rear panel fit into the slots on the top.
- Step 10: Get the holding strap and attach the hooks to the washer’s top and main body.
- Step 11: Use the flathead screwdriver to pry the lid switch out.
- Step 12: Remove the wire harnesses from the retaining clips. Then, pull the harness out and set it aside.
- Step 13: Rotate the dial on the multimeter to the lowest ohms of resistance.
- Step 14: Touch each of the probes to the switch’s power input terminals. Then, actuate the switch.
The multimeter will show close to 0 ohms of resistance if the switch has continuity. However, if the multimeter shows little to no change when you actuate the switch, it means that the component is defective and requires a replacement.

Not Filling Properly
Maytag washers will display an LF error code if the appliance is taking too long to fill. One of the most common causes is a blocked inlet screen.
Each washer has two inlet screens—one for each water supply hose. This tiny mesh filter traps dirt and debris from the water supply to keep the clothes clean.
If there’s too much dirt blocking the screen, it will restrict the flow of water into the tub, eventually causing an LF error code.
There are other possible causes of a filling error, such as obstructed hoses, a broken pressure switch, and a malfunctioning water inlet valve. If you suspect it’s any of these issues, we have a more detailed guide to help you troubleshoot an LF error code.
What you’ll need:
- Pliers

- Step 11: Turn it on and run a test cycle to check if the washer fills and starts.
Damaged User Interface Board
A user interface (UI) board is located right behind the control panel of your washing machine. Once you input the settings, the buttons on the panel will interact with the UI board, signaling the washer to carry out the commands.
If the UI board is faulty, your washer might not start or perform other functions. It can be quite tricky to diagnose, but the best way to confirm the issue is through a continuity test.
Luckily, a UI board won’t cost an arm and a leg. Plus, the fix isn’t impossible—even for someone with very limited repair knowledge.
What you’ll need:
- ¼” nut driver
- Tape
- Channellock pliers
- Multimeter
- New UI Panel
Solution: Before replacing the UI board, isolate the components from the washer and give it a gentle yet thorough clean. If the washer still won’t start, use a multimeter to check for continuity.
