How to Reset or Recalibrate a New Style Maytag Top Load Washing Machine (2022-Current)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 фев 2024
- If you own a newer (2022-current) top load Whirlpool washing machine, the reset/recalibration is notably different than nearly-identical Maytag topload washing machines made from 2010 - 2021.
The dials are slightly different, but the reset and recalibration process is massively different. It still remains just as critical to do this after installing a part, or if the unit acts funny, so learning how to do this is super helpful.

GOOD GRIEF! Weren't computers supposed to make our lives easier? lol... I appreciate your videos, thanks for doing them.
Ben, I enjoy your informational videos ! keep up the good work. You probably are thinking you’re not helping people, but YOU ARE! Thank you for your dedication to your call !
I appreciate that!
I miss my 35 year old Maytag.. Only one repair in 33 yrs.. This 5 year old Kenmore is , odd.. So deep, I have to stand on a crate.. Ok, at least it has an agitator.. Old school .
Same. Had a Maytag that gave me no trouble for 14 years. With the new Maytag, I also have difficulty reaching those last few items in the machine.
We just bought this model a few months ago and I downloaded your video for future reference. Thank you!
You sir are the man . I regularly watch you're videos but today on the Job I had a repair with this type of machine It had no tech sheet .so Out of the blue i just check you're channel and there you go giving me the answers to my problem ha thank you haha
Great to hear!
Thank you This has been more helpful than three hours of training seminars
Oh wow! That's some high praise. What seminar were you in?
@@bensappliancesandjunk Whirlpool quarterly training, but even the service manual doesn't explain this procedure well whatsoever. You made this very easy to understand.
Well, after enduring my old Bertha which was beyond noisy and finished with rust and busted suspension rods (Maytag Neptune duo “Almond”) I purchased LGs. LGTL7150 and matching dryer. I am AMAZED by their absolute silent functioning, amazing! Also, I compared in kilowatts consumed. These LG’s take almost 50% less energy than my old Bertha! I can only hope they last for 2300$!
The newest LGs tend to be quite remarkable, and I highly recommend them. They are about the most reliable on the market, but that's not saying much because pretty much all modern washing machines have a nose-dive in quality. However, like you said - water/electricity consumption is so much better now, that in SOME cases, the loss in reliability may be made up in efficiency. But that always is up to getting something that will last 10-15 years instead of 5-7, and LG on average is better than other brands right now.
Too complicated! I'll be watching this site to keep my Maytag Centennial combo running long! Great vidz!!
I miss mine too!😢
Thanks, and service mode,, test components steps please 👍👍👍
I thought this was a joke. Now I am horrified. I hope my 15 year old speed Queen never quits.
Thank you for this video! This has worked for me once before. But, now when I try the 1-2-1-2 sequence, only the lid lock light comes on. Any ideas? The machine is only 3 months old. Twice, I've had this issue with the start and sensing lights flickering, and had to perform this recalibration exercise.
I was able to fix my washing machine, but I think you should’ve started with unplugging and plugging the machine first before showing the instructions. Wasted quite a bit of time trying to enter calibration mode
After I open and closed the lid, the lights starting turning on like yours did but no water or spinning actually happened. What should I do?
Can you please do a video on the Kenmore Elite 6133 top loader? (6.3 cu ft impeller)
Curious how well it turns over or washes a mixed load.
I dont have one
Those were discontinued about 5 years ago
After all the lights flash. The cave opens and water starts that’s all it will do? Any tips?
wow only thing missing is the pat your head rub your stomach step :)
Where did i put the softener
Se me quebró en el seguro un pedacito de color negro y ahora solo cierro y se queda como con candado pero le falta el pedazo a la pieza
Stumbled on this while browsing your channel when I have an issues with basically this model, which was just delivered, unfortunately not working and this did not fix the problem.
My favorite way to recalibrate a Maytag is to replace it with a Speed Queen.
Whirlpool had a service technician come over today for my brand new piece of junk that doesn't clean your clothes.... Been hearing a lot about these speed queens... Is it the real deal ? I've heard rumors of no lid lock safety BS, fills up the washer with plenty of water... Actually agitates and cleans your clothes... Is it true?
@@BuckMorel It's all true. I kid you not, I had 3 DOA Whirlpools and finally the salesmen fessed up that it wasn't a reliable model. Had a speed queen delivered to my door for $1300 and it's been wonderful. It's basically just a modern looking washer with 1970's technology from what I understand, which is good for reliability. They use a bit more water but the clean is better. Haven't needed a single repair so far and it's been about 5 years. It's paired alongside my 1986 Kenmore dryer and if that ever fails it will be replaced with a Speed Queen as well.
@@Lauterec awesome looking forward to arguing with whirlpool some more and once they finally refund me and come get there garbage machine back I'll be heading out for that speed queen. Any other cool speed queen features? What model did you end up with?
I have the same exact washer and the lid lock is red and will not allow me to do anything! Clothes are stuck
Mine is doing the same shit, lid lock light on and won't let me do anything
What I had to do was pull my washer from the wall, tilt it all the way back to where I could get underneath of it two wires on the right side come loose from the factory must have been made on a Friday or Monday.I put new pigtails on it fixed it right away
I'll be glad when they get rid of computers in appliances we don't need them we function fine for years without computers in our works
It won't ever happen. Every washing machine since about 2016 has had one.
@@bensappliancesandjunk 20 yrs ago my aunt complained to sears her washer broke. She wanted a new brass screw for the leg. She had the original copper pot sears with "patent pending" on the plate.
When???? Never. Thes are moving forward not backwards . They gonna get even more computerized
*How do I turn on deep fill?*
My maytag broke on the 4th wash, I'm returning it.
I do not have this type of control
I tried two brand new ones of this model. It’ll do small loads no problem. Mid size to large loads, it gets almost all the way through then stops. Sounds like the drains going but the two far left lights flash together and the rinse/fill flashes after. And then I have to put it on the drain cycle and it finishes it. Help????
Had the same issue. It simply cannot handle anything more than small loads after about a year. Kills the motor/transmission then its all downhill from there with weird problems. Couldn't do a single comforter or even slightly medium load towards the end.
Totally stopped working again today.
Bought mine a few years ago and it's going in the trash today.
Never buying maytag again. Just Chinese built cheap junk now.
@@dommyboysmithit’s my second unit cause I thought the first one was bad but this one just did the same thing. Looks like I’ll be in your boat and going another direction
Hey Ben
I am getting a new house and really want to save money by buying a kitchen appliance and washer and dryer package on aj madison, which would you recommend please? I have no idea where to start
Kitchen packages are hard, because there's no mfg. that really makes everything great anymore.
If I had to choose one brand and made sure it didn't have in-door ice, I think Electrolux/Frigidaire would be the best all around. None of it is going to be stellar, but its not going to be like LG with a super suspect refrigerator (unless you're looking @ a side by side, then LG may be a fantastic recommendation).
The other one would be GE. Not a fan of their dishwashers, but stoves/fridges are probably the best on average.
@@bensappliancesandjunkwhat do you think about the bosch package? Have you had experience with their refrigerators and stoves?
🙋♂️..hello BRASIL 🇧🇷👋..bens
Hello BRASIL! Nice to see you!
I am considering having my videos translated to Portuguese some time to help people there! But I do wonder, what machines you use there that these videosa re useful for?
Nuclear missiles launch with less steps
maytag used to be awesome when they were made in north america now this chinese garbage having to be fixed after 2 years??
I fixed the issue by not buying one...
Smart move. They dont last more than a couple years. Technician out twice still wont run. Said he needed to do some research.
Its going on the sidewalk tommorow.
Never buying maytag again
Those shift actuators are the cheapest parts. That is your moms washer? Do you not like her? Get that lady a Speed Queen.
I got this for free, and we don't have a local SQ dealer. Yet.
It doesn’t work
How old is your maytag?
Hey Ben tried to reply but it wont let me for some reason. These are the ones i am looking at on AJ Madison. Frigidaire FRRERADWMW4556, Frigidaire FRRERADWMW4546, GE GERERADWMW104032
Didn't fix my sense wash flashing light these are pieces of junk only a month old
