The blinking lights are error codes and you will need the Tech Notes to interpret them and to put the machine into a diagnostic model. The tech notes should be inside the console or somewhere under the top.

No because the tech sheet I have access to for this model has four led lights for the Cycle Selector (super wash, normal, express and gentle) and you indicated you only have three.

If you cannot access the tech notes or they are not there you need to contact Maytag and see if they can get you a copy.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I interpreted your original post to mean you only had three led positions.

Here is the tech notes explanation and suggestions for diagnosis for your machine given that error code.

LONG DRAIN

LEDS ACTIVATED EXPLANATION/RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE

If the drain time exceeds 6 minutes, the wash cycle will
stop. Push the START/OFF button to reset the operation
mode, a Drain task is executed and the previously selected
cycle resumes.

POTENTIAL CAUSES

■ Drain pump failure.

■ Drain hose: check for proper connection, kinks or clogs.

■ Pressure switch contact failure.

I think the likely cause is a blockage in the drain system, and almost as likely is the failure of the drain pump. Start by checking that out. If they check out you can try replacing the water level/pressure switch.

I cannot link you to the tech notes because Maytag will no longer allow access to their tech site.

Also, your machine is made by Maytag under the Crosley brand.

Good luck, hope this helps.
