I am getting the od code on my maytag washer. I have tried the magnet down the side of the lid but it is not working. Any ideas?

You placed a magnet over the Left gray bumper and that did not clear the error code is that correct? If so it would be time to open up the Left Hand Lid lock and see if you lost signaling (broken lead on the magnetic reed relay) in that assembly. See if this post will help FAV6800A/FAV9800A Left Hand Lid Lock issues I have another post in a sticky for the FAV6800A/FAV9800A related to the lid locks. Just Google "" Neptune TL Washer FAV6800AWW""You will find additional support for the error code there starting 5th post down.......Dick

“”Magnet worked again.”" Are you talking about the internal Lid Magnet? See pic If the OD error code pops up again I would check with a DVM to see if you are losing +12VDC signaling back to Conn P3_ pin 9 for +12VDC signaling Lid Closed Input/Lid Open Input referenced to Conn_P3 Pin 10 TDS Sensor Gnd. With the lid closed you would measure +12VDC and with the lid open you will measure no DC voltage. Just a FYI; If you lose that signaling at the start of a wash cycle (when you hit the starts key pad) you will throw an OP error code to the LED display. If you are working now open the washer lid and hit the Start key Pad and you should throw an OP error code "Lid Is Open". Now with the washer lid open and the OP error code showing in the display place a large magnet over the left gray bumper and the OP (Lid is Open) error code should clear. see mag pic. this is just an easy way to check +12VDC signaling back to the Control Board when troubleshooting OD and OP error codes and locating the point of failure. Good luck............Dick dh1200s attached the following image(s):

The Control board is more than likely not seeing the magnetic reed relay switch signaling. Could be an open lead on the magnetic switch relay. Google this; Neptune TL Washer FAV6800AWW the firts hit will take you there.At the 7th post in that sticky I go into great detail of troubleshooting the "OP" error code. You troubleshoot the "OD" error code the same way. You can get the Service Manual at the sticky also.Dick

Dick Good Morning Dick. I have read most of the threads of yours that deal with the FAV6800AWW and the dc code. I ran my machine thru the Quick Spin Test and from the 35-40 RPM range I'm getting a pretty severe vibration. Due to speed of the tub, it seems to clear and not be so violent at about the 65 range. Before I begin to take it down, do you think I'm looking at anything more than the clutch cleanup? This is a "13" s/n machine. Thanks.

Hey Alex, When you go into Service Mode and run the Quick Spin Test the machine Console Control Board will signal the Motor Controller to spin up the Drive Motor to 90 RPM indicated on the Console. The next step is 150 RPM as the test calls out on up to 850 RPM. Some questions; Have you been taking DC or UC unbalance errors? You ran the Quick Spin Test with an empty wash basket correct and you have severe vibration? Does the machine step thru all ranges up to 850 RPM successfully completing the Quick Spin test? If the wash basket is empty and you are experiencing “”pretty severe vibration”” I feel this is not a Clutch Issue. I say it's not the Clutch Pulley based on an empty wash basket Quick Spin Test or a Spin Only cycle. Put a wet wash load in the the wash basket and see if you throw DC or UC unbalance error with severe wash tub swings/wash tub banging around. I would drop out the Clutch Pulley and inspect for a Tub Seal leak (rust present on the Clutch bearing assembly. If the Clutch can be cleaned up reassemble; see Sticky Neptune TL Washer FAV6800AWW starting at Post #6; Part 2; Clutch Pulley Removal If you read the Service Notes from that Sticky Neptune TL Washer FAV6800AWW starting at Post #5 ; Part 1; DC or UC unbalance error codes in Spin Cycle what is causing this issue? I explain why the Tumblers rotate at the start of the Spin Cycle and the possible Clutch maintenance that most of the time will clear the issue for extended service life.....if not severly rusted up. I’m finding these machines are approaching or are at the point of service life where it is time for a Tub Seal replacement. If you dive into that see this post; FAV6800A/FAV9800A Outer Tub bearing replacementBut let’s have some more feedback on your issue and clarify the questions about the Quick Spin Test that you ran. It is always good to start a new thread for your issue but lets stay here for your response………Dick

Ran the Quick Spin Test with an empty basket. Will not complete on a full load wash. Gets to 11 minutes and stops. On 'open door-restart at same point' tries to reposition the clothes and then times out at very slow RPM and displays DC again. Sorry to be so long in response, but I had to run an errand and didn't know you're availability. Thanks.

Stops at 11 minutes and gives code. Pause and open door and restart, the machine tries to start and then times out again. The Quick test was done with the machine empty. It did step thru all of the spins up to 85 (850). But it does give the severe vibrations empty. Thanks

Understand, Drop the Clutch Pulley out and see if it can be cleaned up if it can't be cleaned up you need to replace. That should get you back in service. If there is severe rust you need to think about a Tub Seal replacement. You can follow this post Maytag Neptune load unbalance for Clutch Pulley clean up. Or the other forum with my Sticky notes. If you need to replace the Clutch Pully I would not pay more than $80 + shipping. Google this p/n 25001169 for best price.…….Dick
