šŸ” Common Maytag Refrigerator Problems


Error Codes: What They Mean & What We Do


Newer Maytag models display diagnostic error codes when something goes wrong. Don’t panic — here’s what they mean and how we resolve them:


ā„ļø Not Cooling / Warm Fridge or Freezer


Common Maytag Error Codes:

  • E1 / E2 – Temperature sensor failure

  • CO – Communication error

  • PO – Power outage (fridge may not restart properly)


šŸ› ļø How We Fix It: We test thermistors, check airflow, diagnose the control board, and inspect sealed system components like the evaporator and compressor.


āœ… Most cooling problems are fully repairable — especially when caught early.


šŸ’§ Leaking Water or Ice Inside Drawers


Symptoms:

  • Water puddles near freezer or deli drawers

  • Ice building up around the back panel

  • Musty odor from inside the fridge


Common Causes:

  • Clogged defrost drain

  • Frozen or cracked water lines

  • Faulty inlet valve or heater


āœ… We clear blockages, replace damaged parts, and test for hidden mold or insulation damage if necessary.


🧊 Ice Maker Not Working / Water Dispenser Issues


Common Error Codes:

  • Fd – Ice maker fan failure

  • dr – Door switch not engaged (blocks dispenser)

  • SY EF – Evaporator fan issue


šŸ› ļø We inspect the ice maker motor, fan systems, water valves, and fill lines. If possible, we thaw or adjust instead of replacing to save you money.


āœ… Ice maker issues are one of our most common and fixable Maytag calls.


šŸ” Power Cycling or Panel Glitches


Error Codes:

  • CE / CF – Communication error (main board to fan or compressor)

  • 88:88 / --:-- – Power reset or reboot required

  • HC – High temperature detected


šŸ› ļø We inspect circuit boards, test voltage, and perform soft resets. If a control board is needed, we replace it with genuine OEM parts.


āœ… We explain everything clearly — no tech speak, just honest repair help.


šŸ”‰ Buzzing, Clicking, or Humming Noises


No Error Code? That’s okay. If your Maytag fridge is noisy, we check:

  • Loose compressor mounts

  • Fan blades hitting ice

  • Faulty defrost timer

  • Bad condenser or evaporator motors


šŸ› ļø Noise issues are often mechanical or airflow-related — and we can typically resolve them without part replacement.
