Tim S Canton , MI June 04, 2016 Appliance: Maytag Gas Dryer MGDB850WQ0 Maytag bravos dryer model mgdb850wq0 with error code f73 that occurred after a power failure According to the manual, error code F73 indicates an issue with the control board(s). There are two in the MGDB850WQ0. One is for the control panel and the other is a power control board for the motors / sensors. From what I read from others on this site, the control panel board is the likely culprit. Ordered a replacement board WPW10336131 and swapped them out. Dryer now works fine. One note is the circuit board itself comes sandwiched between a black plastic front cover (shown in the picture) and a white plastic cover. I could not figure out how to get the black plastic piece off, and so I only swapped out the circuit board and the white plastic back cover. It was a simple replacement as it only involved 4-5 screws. Read More... 6 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
Steven S Hurley , NY June 17, 2016 Appliance: Maytag Electric Dryer MEDB850WL0 Maytag bravos electric dryer broken and had bad display after power failure After utility power returned the display shows 3 dashes after rotating the knob. Trying the tech sheet diagnostics generated a different code every time I ran it. More than a dozen different error codes, many of them not even defined. Another sign is some functions of the User Interface Control Board not working; like LED's out and simple functions like the drum light not working. The fix: replace USER INTERFACE CONTROL BOARD.
