Found this for a washer similar to yours. I suggest trying to run diagnostics

For the Maytag MHW5630HW0, use the following procedure to enter diagnostics and run the automatic test cycle. These Whirlpool-built front-load washers use the same service diagnostic sequence.

Enter Service Diagnostics

  1. Washer must be in Standby (plugged in, all indicators off).

  2. Close the door.

  3. Using any 3 buttons except Power/Start, perform:

    • Button 1

    • Button 2

    • Button 3

    • Button 1

    • Button 2

    • Button 3

    Complete the sequence within 8 seconds.

Example:

  • Soil Level

  • Temp

  • Spin

  • Soil Level

  • Temp

  • Spin

If successful, all LEDs illuminate and “888” (or all segments) appears.

Check Stored Error Codes

  • Once in diagnostics, the most recent fault code displays first.

  • Press the same button used as Button 3 to advance through stored codes.

  • Codes display as:

    • F# E#

    • Example: F9E1 = Long Drain.

Write down every code shown before clearing anything.

Run Automatic Diagnostic Test

  1. After entering diagnostics, rotate/select until Automatic Test appears (varies slightly by software version).

  2. Press Start.

  3. The washer will automatically test:

    • Door lock

    • Hot valve

    • Cold valve

    • Drain pump

    • Tumble motor

    • Spin function

The cycle typically takes several minutes. Stop immediately if excessive vibration, grinding, or water leakage occurs.

Clear Fault Codes

While viewing codes:

  • Press and hold Start for about 3 seconds until codes clear.

Common Codes

Code Meaning
F0E2 Oversuds
F5E2 Door lock failure
F8E1 No/low water detected
F9E1 Long drain
F0E5 Off-balance load
F7E1 Motor/tachometer issue

Tell me exactly what code(s) you find, and I can walk you through the troubleshooting steps for each one.
