Maytag drain pump won't stop draining even though tub is empty

I have a newer maytag top load Mvw6200KW washing machine.

Yesterday when trying to do a load the initial drain stage started and just kept going for about 20-30 minutes until I unplugged the machine. I plugged it in again and just went right to the drain cycle again. I took the hoses all off to look for clogs and no obvious clogs were found, a little bit of lint scale but nothing that would block flow. I checked the pump to see if there was anything clogged in the impeller but also no issues.

I reconnected everything and I poured some water in the tub and pulled up the drain hose to confirm it was flowing. It flowed normally and then the tub was drained and the pump remained on just trying to pump air and the last remaining heel of water until it stopped and gave error code f9e1.

I'm thinking their is either a faulty limit switch (couldn't locate one, looks like it uses a hose to sense water pressure?) or something faulty with the control panel.

Before ordering a new control panel I'm just wondering if there is something else it could be.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
