The only sensor mentioned in the [link|https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/5zr525evya-003048/maytag-mvwb725bw0-washer-parts|parts list] for the washer is the motor rotor position sensor (part #20 motor and basket parts). This is used to determine the direction and speed of the spinning rotor.

The most relevant sensor mentioned in the [link|https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/5zr525evya-003048/maytag-mvwb725bw0-washer-parts|parts list] for the washer is the motor rotor position sensor (part #20 motor and basket parts). This is used to determine the direction and speed of the spinning rotor.
Looking at what the [link|https://www.pwslaundry.com/files/docs/maytag-whirlpool/Tech-Sheet-W10403990-Rev-A.pdf|tech sheet] for the washer shows for an Sd error code (see p.3), it may be a problem with the sensor detecting the correct spin rate of the motor and the control board thinks that it is because of a drag on the basket:
''Sd is displayed when the machine/motor control, by analyzing drag on the basket, detects a suds-lock condition, and is steady on while the control then runs a mini clean out cycle. If the cleanout cycle is unable to correct the over-sudsing problem, the cycle ends and Sd flashes in the display. This may signify: Load is bunched, Excessive detergent usage, Mechanical friction on drive mechanism, not allowing motor to spin properly.''
Try performing ''test #3 Motor circuit'' (see tech sheet p.4) as this tests the motor and rotor position sensor.
Do the ''manual motor spin test'' on p.2 as well.
It also mentions that it performs a mini cleanout cycle to try and clear the problem. Perhaps try running a Clean Washer cycle, (see p.11 of the [link|https://www.searspartsdirect.com/manual/5zr525evya-003048/maytag-mvwb725bw0-washer-parts|user guide]) and check if this does anything to fix the problem.

Hi @Leo Fuller,

Hopefully a start.
