    My washer want even fill up with water the washer never starts any cycle. It does beep when I chose my options and the lid locks then after a minute the lid unlocks and then all the lights go off but the start light. This washer is faulty by far and it was such a great pattern for washing with the dule agitators it use to clean so good. Now it want start so it sure dont clean.. Please help a mom of 4 boys to wash clothes.. Thanks love

So I understand the issue. Does the wash cycle start up? By that I mean if you release the washer top from the base do the tumblers turn once the water fill cycle is complete?

If you don't have the FAV6800A/FAV9800A Service Manual (you can't get it on line anymore) see this post Clutch Fix I describe how to release the washer top from the base to observe the wash basket. Don't raise during the water fill cycle wait till that completes.

Does the key pad beep as you press the other cycle select key pads?

This could be a Control Board issue...........Rich

We just moved and the house came with a Maytag Neptune TL which won't spin if there are clothes in the cylinder. It will spin empty. Please help! Thanks.

Washer bangs around in spin cycle and throws a DC or UC unballance code with cloths in the wash basket is that correct?

If so it's a Clutch issue.

Maytag TL fav6800aww won't start wash cycle.Pause light flashes ,won't go into diagnosis mode.No codes shown

I'm sure you power cycled the machine if not give it a try.

This could be a Control Board issue or a Console issue. I would replace the Control Board 1st.

I have working Control Board's and Console's. With an issue like this it's difficult to troubleshoot if you can't get into Service Mode to at least look for a starting point.

Do the key pad keys beep if you press them?

You could try to do some basic Ohm meter checks This post discused. My 1st choice with that issue was a Control board swap and it turned out to be a Console issue.
