F20Warning

Maytag Washer F20 Error Code

The washer is not filling with water or filling too slowly.

Common causes

  • Water supply valves turned off or partially closed
  • Kinked or blocked inlet hoses
  • Clogged inlet screens on the valve

How to fix it

  1. Ensure both hot and cold water valves are fully open
  2. Check inlet hoses for kinks
  3. Clean screens inside hose connections at the valve
⚠ When to call a pro: If water flow is normal to hoses but error persists, the inlet valve may need replacement.
