The door lock light is blinking on my front load maytag maxima.
Maytag front loading washer door locked light flashing.
If not call for service.
After plugging the washer in one of the following 3 events will happen.
I have a 27 front load maytag neptune washer mah8700a we had a large load and the machine stopped in the middle of operation.
First it had a code blinking that i looked up and it was for the water so i turned it on and now it is making a humming noise and the door is locked and that is all it will do.
Our maytag maxima steam washer has a flashing yellow light next to door locked the door won t open and the machined cannot be turned on.
When the lock light is blinking it typically means that the unit either took to long to fill with water in which case it ll go into flood mode and keep draining for 15 20 minutes and unlock on it s own or there is a glitch in the electronics and just unplugging it for 60 seconds will reset the issue.
This is all it will do.
The lid will lock and the machine will enter a pump out mode for 8 minutes.
This happened when i forgot to turn the water on.
The door may immediately unlock.
It stopped right after it dispensed the detergent and i ve tried all of the not so helpful repair advise on the maytag website and i still can t get it unlocked.
The door was locked and i could not open it.
If the washer will not unlock at the end of a wash cycle unplug the washer or disconnect power.
The door should unlock after this is complete.
This washer has sensors that detect the water supply and requires both hoses to have water going to the water valve.
The door should unlock after 60 seconds.
Reconnect power to washer plug in.

The only thing it is doing is the humming trying to start sound and the blinking door locked light.
The washer will go into a hold and drain routine for 8 minutes.
I noticed that my maytag maxim front load washer was flashing door lock and error code f6e1 i think along with annoying chimes or buzzing.
Nothing else will appear to be happening with the machine during this time.
The only way i can stop those is to unplug the machine.
If it does not detect both water supply hoses are turned on the control detects a problem with the water pressure sensor.
