Maytag Washer Error Code Sud or SD

Experiencing issues with your Maytag washer showing the Sud or SD error code? This error occurs when there are too many suds in the washer, disrupting the spinning process. Both top-loader and front-loader models can encounter this problem.

The cause might be the use of incorrect detergent. Ensure you’re using High-Efficiency (HE) detergent, as regular detergents can lead to excessive suds. Be cautious with “no splash” or “easy pour” detergents, as they may contribute to the issue.

The washer attempts to address the problem by pausing and adding water to dissipate the suds. Allow the machine to complete this process. If the problem persists, check for clogs in the drain hose or standpipe, as these can cause excess suds.

To prevent this error, regularly clean your washer to remove detergent residue and adhere to recommended detergent quantities. If issues persist, it’s advisable to contact Appliance Repair Los Angeles for professional assistance. Our experts are equipped to diagnose and resolve complex Maytag washer problems.
