allen63 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Manufacturer: Maytag Type of Appliance: Top load washer Model Number: Mvwb835dw1 Have you validated the model number at an online parts site like Repair Clinic? (yes or no): Yes Have you watched the video on how to search for manuals and have you searched the Downloads section prior to posting this request? (yes or no): Yes Need exact service manual for model number MVWB835dw1. This is the new bravo XL Maytag Toploader washer . I tried the Cabrio service manual 2014 and the diagnostic was to press three buttons three times within eight seconds and it’s not going into diagnostic mode . Seeing somebody else on the post trying this method and did not work either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Dunsel Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Within 8 seconds, • Press and Release the 1st selected button,• Press and Release the 2nd selected button,• Press and Release the 3rd selected button;• Repeat this 3 button sequence 2 more times.3. If this test mode has been entered successfully, all indicators on the console will be illuminated for 5 seconds with “888” showing in the three-digit display and a tone will sound. If there are no saved fault codes, the seven segment display will come back on and display “888”. Upon entry to Service Diagnostic mode, all cycles and options reset to factory default.

allen63 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Yes, I tried that diagnostic dance pattern and it’s not working. I guess that has to be main control board then because it’s not going to diagnostic mode. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen63 Posted July 16, 2019 Author Share Posted July 16, 2019 Just wanted to give an update. I think the main reason why it wasn’t spinning intermittently was because there was a lot of coins in between the wash plate and the inner tub. I did replace the main control board because I couldn’t get the original main control board in diagnostic mode. The second time trying to get the new board into diagnostic mode what’s not so easy . Instead of hitting 3 selected buttons 3 times in eight seconds I had to do it about five times in 8 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
