After a wash cycle, the letters UE appeared in the timer window..

Most likely a lid switch problem

UE= uneven ?
Remove any every heavy items such as floor towels or rugs. Is the machine draining completely or leaving lots of water behind? If not draining check the drain divirertor valve.

From back or underneath, check that all three shock absorbers are attached. Take top off and check if both springs are in place and un broken

We have the same problem. The Normal cycle still works, but after the final spin cycle, water is again added (1 gal est.) and the machine stops. Problem occurred after washing an old 25 x 30 inch rug which partially disentegrated when washed. We were seeing particles of the rug in subsequent wash cycles during drain into laundry tub. Don't know if something is plugged in the washer or if it is something else. In another load after the rug wash, the top of the washer was lifted during the wash cycle. The water problem occurred immediately after lifting the lid as the wash load went through remaining cycles. Maybe this affected the timer? Maytag customer service suggested unplugging power cord to re-set timer. This didn't make any difference. We need a technician to tell us if this is a timer problem or something else?

Two possible problems too much weight (pieces of clothing) and second you need to redistribute the load to make it even, and re-engage the wash cycle again. Good Luck

UE = Unbalance Error. If you are doing a large item and cannot add, reduce, or adjust the load, try adjusting the spin speed to a low spin speed setting. If the load is still too wet, you can run just a pump and spin by turning on power and then selecting the spin speed, one setting higher than the last one which ran the full cycle through without resulting in the UE code,(without selecting a cycle) and push start.

it means uneven load do u have a pillow in there or something that soaks up lots of water!!

UE = Unbalance Error


Laundry load is unbalanced, manually loosen any tangled laundry.
If only one item of clothing needs washing, such as a bathrobe or jeans, the final spin result might be unsatisfactory and an UE error message will be shown in the display. Unbalance error is cleared by POWER switch OFF and back ON.
