Code overview
Content status: Verified
- Error code
- 0E
- Appliance
- Dryer
0E on a Maytag dryer: reset the breaker for 5 minutes, then run a timed dry cycle and monitor.
Model compatibility: Maytag reuses codes across series and model years, so 0E may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
What this code means
0E
Maytag lists this code but states no cause, only reset steps.
0E: breaker reset, then watch
The Maytag page for 0E does not say what triggers it. It offers one remedy, a power cycle at the breaker.
Switch the dryer’s breaker(s) off for five minutes, switch them on again, run a timed dry cycle, and keep an eye on the display for one minute. If the code is gone, the reset has done what Maytag describes. If it shows again, ask for service.
