- The published condition is: excess suds detected during the cycle
- The affected function behaves as described by the manufacturer while F0E2 is present
- The important observation is when F0E2 appears and whether the exact published action changes that condition

## Causes or fault boundaries

- Published check — Use only the correct HE detergent and the recommended amount
- Published check — Run a Rinse/Spin or cleaning cycle as Maytag describes
- Published check — arrange service if F0E2 returns with correct detergent use
- Stop at the published service boundary after these actions
- do not add a restart or test cycle that Maytag does not specify for F0E2
- Published check — Give service the F0E2 photo, full model and serial number, when it appeared, and the result of every published external check
- Stop at the published service boundary after these actions; do not add a restart or test cycle that Maytag does not specify for F0E2

## Evidence-backed actions
