Maytag washer repair in the San Francisco Bay Area
A Maytag washer in San Francisco, Oakland or anywhere nearby that keeps displaying F3 E3 can be booked for Maytag washer repair on (415) 649-2156. Have ready the exact code, the model number, whether the drum loads from the front or the top, and the fact that the 5-minute reset did not help.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so F3 E3 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F3 E3 is an inlet water temperature fault (inlet thermistor open or shorted) on front-load Maytag washers; top-load pages state no cause.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
