Simple Fix For Stuck Power / Cancel Button

O que você precisa

  1. Simple Fix For Stuck Power / Cancel Button, Identify the Model / Safety Precaution: passo 1, imagem 1 %32
    • Identify your washer type. The Power / Cancel button may differ with different models. This was my model tag.

    • On my unit the model number tag was found by opening the washing machine door.

    • ** WARNING ** - UNPLUG POWER PRIOR TO WORKING. YOU WORK AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY!

  2. Simple Fix For Stuck Power / Cancel Button, Locate the Power / Cancel Button: passo 2, imagem 1 %32
    • The power button contains a gray colored round button actuator in a chrome housing. The words "Power - Cancel" (solid dot between words) are printed above the button

    • Apparently the stuck button was actually caused by the chrome housing/ring being pressed in too far at the bottom or otherwise misaligned. This was not a problem with the actuator itself as I first thought.

  3. Simple Fix For Stuck Power / Cancel Button, Release the button housing: passo 3, imagem 1 %32
    • The simple fix here was to take a metal pick (or other thin but firm tool) and carefully get under the chrome housing (ring) at the bottom and wedge it up or slightly forward.

    • To my surprise there was a slight click/pop that indicated the housing ring was released.

    • Plug the washing machine back into the power source and lightly touch the Power / Cancel button actuator.

    • My advice to avoid this in the future is to more carefully "touch" the center of the gray actuator with minimal force rather then "mash" the whole button during use.

Hello I have a GE front loader and my power went out before it was done it had a minute to go and now it does not want to start back up what do I do and I thought I would unplugged it for a hour thinking it would reset it self but that didn't work

There are some things which can cause this - online they talk about a stuck water valve or a door switch problem. Make sure to completely restart a cycle. There is also a reset process where you unplug the power cord and then hold down the power button for at least 5 seconds after plugging the power cord back in.

Can this be done with a Maytag 4000 series same as the picture from this post. I changed the sensor and cleared all tubes of debris and cleaned the back filter to the tub and took out some plastic, also cleaned out the filter at the bottom connected to the water pump. I’ve done it all and I’m still getting the F32 and F20 code, the F 32 doesn’t stay on anymore but it stops the washing process. I’m thinking memory code has to be reset and I can’t find out how. Help!
