[My ice maker will not switchover from crushed ice to whole ice. I watched it from the inside and it looks like it doesn’t have enough power to lift the arm up to make the switch over.](javascript:void()
The above details the same problem I am experiencing. The question is what other parts were ordered and did the answer - replace SOLENOID #378 solve the problem?
I Have A Maytag Neptune Front Loader Washer About 9 Years Old. I Keep Getting A Code 3e. Sometimes The Washer Works And Sometimes I Get This Code. Does Anyone Know What This Code Means?
This machine has a rather sophisticated built in diagnostics, and there should be tech notes inside the cabinet.
Here is what the service manual says about the code you are getting.
"Code Description Trigger Action to be taken 2E
Motor Drive failure (Locked, Hall sensor fault)
Machine control is attempting to drive the motor but is not seeing
any tach response.
Visual check shows motor is not moving. Display “E3” Evaluate wire
harness for loose or unhooked connections.
Replace machine control board if deemed necessary"
If your display is 3E instead, here is the info from the service manual.
Motor failure (Over current)
Over Current is detected. Motor won’t turn.
Displays "3E".Check the motor windings, the speed sensor, wiring connections,
or Control Board
What this means is that the control unit is not detecting that the motor is operating. This could mean that the motor is not operating, that the hall sensor (tachometer) is bad, the wiring is bad or the control unit is bad.
Sorry not to be more definitive, that is the nature of these built in diagnostics on machines with CPU’s.
