Maytag Washer - Int Error Code

The washer cycle was interrupted.

Meaning

This code appears across multiple Maytag platforms, including front-load MAH models, Bravos/Bravos XL/Centennial/VMW top-load models, and Neptune TL washers. The meaning is identical across all platforms: the washer stopped mid-cycle due to a user action, power loss, lid/door event, or internal pause condition. The washer will not resume until the issue is cleared or the cycle is restarted.
