My Maytag Neptune Model#mah6500aww Beeps Three Times When I Push The Start Butto

It was full of water when I put the rug in that I was going to wash which is unusual. Now the front door is locked and it beeps three times when I push the start button. I unplugged it for about ten minutes and when I plugged it back in the drum started spinning for about three seconds then stops. The Start/Pause button is now flashing and the door is locked.

It sounds like your Maytag Neptune washing machine is experiencing a fault with the door lock mechanism. The beeping and flashing of the Start/Pause button are likely indicating a door lock error.

One possible cause could be that there was water in the drum when you attempted to start a cycle, which could have damaged the door lock or caused it to malfunction.

To fix this problem, you may need to have a technician take a look at the machine. They will be able to diagnose the issue and repair or replace the door lock as needed. In the meantime, you can try unplugging the machine for a few minutes and then plugging it back in to see if that helps reset the machine. However, if the problem persist its best to call professional help as it may lead to more damage.

The Maytag MAH6500AWW washing machine may be beeping three times to indicate a specific error code. Without more information on the specific error or any other symptoms, it is difficult to provide a specific solution. Some common causes of this issue include a door lock error, a problem with the water level or pressure switch, or a failure with the control board. It is recommended to check the user manual or contact Maytag customer service for further assistance in troubleshooting the issue.
