Maytag MVWC565FW2, all balanced, springs seem fine, wobbles a little when it gets to the spin part of the cycle when in Normal mode. Doesn’t even wobble that bad but tries to rebalance 3 times then quits with an F0 E5 code. However, if i set it to Drain & Spin, it will spin just fine. My solution thus far is to run it in Normal and cancel when it gets to the spin cycle, then switch it to Drain & Spin to finish, but this will not work long term (it’s a rental). Any ideas?
How does this machine detect an unbalanced load? I don’t see a detector switch like on other machines. Does it run low speed vs high speed spin in the Normal vs Spin mode? I put it in diagnostic and tested spin (9 turns clockwise i think) and it worked fine. I also tried recalibrating. I should also mention that when I found the machine the plastic linkage from the shift actuator had come loose.
Machine is not very old but I am in a salty marine environment so it could just be the springs. I tried manually holding the tub in place when it starts the spin but it quits very quickly.
