I get a Sud message, the washer goes through its suds clearing cycle for 5 minutes, then the machine gives me an F35 error and won't continue. I unplug the machine, hold the start/cancel button, the machine was resetting and washing normally, now it repeats the Sud/F35 errors 5 out of 6 attempts to restart. I pulled out the service manual and found the pressure switch, when I blow into it, I hear a click. Any ideas? Any way to check the switch i.e. check resistance etc. before I replace it( that is if I need to). I appreciate any help I could get. Thank You.

Ed R.,

I think you gave us a bad model number(not listed in tech data lists).

But,if you want to test the pressure switch circuits, this should work :

Disconnect the water level switch harness from the CCU (connector PR6).

Disconnect the air dome hose from the water level switch.

Now,

On the PR6 harness (from the water level switch)

Check for a closed circuit between pin 1 and pin 2 in the connector,(should be and open circuit).

Check for a closed circuit between pin 4 and pin 6 in the connector,(should be a closed circuit).

Attach a hose to the water level switch and blow into it, lightly until you hear a click from the switch,and recheck the circuits.

Re check for a closed circuit in the harness PR6 pin 1 to pin 2(should be an open circuit , still).

Recheck for a closed circuit between pin 4 and pin 6 in the connector,( should be an open circuit, now)

Check for a closed circuit between pin 4 and pin 5 in the connector,( should be a closed circuit).

Check for a closed circuit between pin 4 and pin 3 in the connector,(should be a closed circuit).

If your tests are correct , you'll need to check the airdome hose and pump for clogs, debris, or detergent, calcium build up causing the switch not to reset properly.

If that is all correct, you'll need to repalce the CCU(that is not common for this complaint).

Good Luck,
:) :) :)

Lauren, We're not familiar with a Maytag 9000 washer, but if your model number is similar to a MHWE900VJ00 Maytag front load washer, you'll find the water level switch

Part number: AP5264563
Part number: AP5264563


and air tube

Part number: AP4310571
Part number: AP4310571


mounted to the right side of the interior cabinet. You'll need to remove the top panel (three(3) screws across the back, slide the panel to the rear 1 or 2 inches to unlatch the hidden retainers screws and lift to top panel off) from the right side of the machine, you'll be able to dismount the switch assembly, and disconnect the air hose and wire harness, be careful of the sharp metal edges, and make sure you unplug the power cord before you start anything.

Thank you I found it. The agitating of the cycle was bumping the sensor causing a bad connection. I taped the black hose to the drain hose so it would not get bumped in thx agitation cycle. Thanks so much! Husband wanted me to spend $$$ on a new machine and ours is only 2 years old. THe drain was also full of money and baby socks.

Lauren, Great !! We're glad it wasn't anything major, and you're up and running.

Now you'll need to remember to check all the pockets, for coins and objects, and watch out for the baby's clothes. You may want to do them as a separate small or medium sized load, to keep the smaller lighter articles from getting into the drain pump.
