Maytag EPIC MFW9700S Front Load Washer Questions & Answers
My maytag epic z washer
Unplug or disconnect power to the machine and access the electronic control board. Remove the screws in the back of the top panel, then lift the back of the top panel and slide back to remove.
The electronic control board is located on the left side near the top. It's very common for that part to fail. Look on the back side for a burned or scorched mark near the relays.
Measure the resistance between P1-3 and P1-4. If the resistance is between 1-6 ohms, replace the control board. If not check the belt switch for continuity.
Check the motor windings at the motor switch. Disconnect the motor connector. Measure the run/main windings between the blue wire in back and the white/orange wire (2.4-3.6 Ohms). Measure the start windings between the blue wire in back and the Violette wire (2.4-3.8 Ohms).
Lift the idler pulley up and measure between the two blue wires to check the belt switch.

I disassembled doors front and back and found a
check that there is a small tube in the area as it is around that spot that the pressure hose goes up to the water level selector switch
otherwise use a short metal thread screw with a fibre washer under the head to plug the hole
you can get screws as short is 3/8 to 1/2 " and thick in diameter to fit into the hole
too long and it will bind up on the wash tub
Hot Water Inlet Malfunction Maytag MFW9700SQ0
what you are describing is not due to the leak. There are no fuses in the unit to protect the valves. The fuses protect the whole machine and if they failed, the unit wont power on at all. There is a control panel board on the front and a control board inside the unit near the back top. Check the connections sounds like when the tech cleans the valves that he is wiggling connections that fail later again.
Water pours out of machine from the door while filling with water.
Sounds like someone may have "hung" on the door whilst it was open, which bent the door or the hinge.
Some hardware stores or appliance stores sell a foam rubber strip with an adhesive backing, wherein you peel off the adhesive cover and stick it on the whatever you want.
Perhaps you could try a piece of sticky-backed foam stuck to the front of the machine or to the door to see if the water will slow down.
God bless your efforts.
Water is running out of the dispenser,not in washer
The dispenser has three hoses that lead to it. They flush the detergent and softener out when it fills. The hoses to the dispenser can break or come loose and then water runs out of the machine. If the dispenser drawer pulls all the way out, remove it and look in the slot to see if any hoses are loose.
What does F- and 21 mean
Error code F 21 means the drain is clogged...follow this advise for the Whirlpool washer as Maytag was bought by themthere is also this site for the washers http://fixedappliance.blogspot.ca/2011/11/whirlpoolkenmoremaytag-more-f02f21-sd.html
Is there a filter on this model
Of course. The filter is located in the pump behind 'front' bottom panel. Disconnect power, remove the three screws attaching the lower front access panel to the cabinet then pull the panel down and off the cabinet. You can prop up the bottom front edge of the washer or cushion and lean it against the wall to access and remove the screws more easily. Once the panel is off, remove the filter by turning the knob counterclockwise. Be prepared for a lot of water, catch it in something to prevent more work. Clean the filter from any debris that prevents water from draining out properly. Front loaders hv filters, top loaders don't. Don't forget to click that you are helped!
