Maytag MAH8700A service manual Board Input Test

Troubleshooting Procedures

!WARNING

To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power to washer before servicing, unless testing requires power.

IN	Board Input Test
	While in Service Mode, pressing the
	Spin Only key will begin the Board Input
	Test. This test turns on a specified output

after a key press. Pressing the Spin Only key again cancels the test. (Display shows “in”).

While in Service Mode follow chart to check respective function.

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to

“Super Wash” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the door position will be displayed: “0P” if open, “CL” if closed.

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Normal” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the Lock position will be displayed: “UL” if unlocked, “L0” if locked.

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Whites” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the High water level will be displayed: “–0” if below level, “–1” if above level. The High water level is defined as the over flow water level.

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Wrinkle Control” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the Medium water level will be displayed: “—0” if below level, “—1” if above level. The Medium water level is defined as the minimum water level needed such that the heater can be turned ‘ON’ (only MAH8700* and MAH9700* models have heaters).

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Colors” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the Low water level will be displayed: “_0” if below level, “_1” if above level. The Low water level is defined as the reset water level.

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to

“Hand Wash” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the level of Tub unbalance will be displayed: “UC” if balanced, “U0” if unbalanced. “U0” will be displayed during the time when the machine is correcting for the unbalance; e.g. slowing down to redistribute the load or to get to a lower spin speed. Once the situation has been corrected (i.e. the load has begun tumbling or the lower speed has resulted in an acceptable amount of balance); “UC” will once again be displayed.

•When the Delay key is pressed, the water temperature will be displayed in Degrees F (Fahrenheit).

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to

“Delicates” and the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is pressed, the water temperature will be displayed in degrees C (Celsius).

•When the Rotary Cycle Selector knob is set to “Super Wash”, the LED lights up. Revolve Rotary Cycle Selector knob clockwise until all LED’s are ‘OFF’, then press Rotary Cycle Selector knob to display frequency reading. “2560” means 25.60 Hz (washer empty).Frequency value drops as water rises.

While performing the Board Input Test in Service Mode, follow this quick reference chart to check respective functions.
