It won,t fill with water, but it will go though all the cycles. If I pull off the hose on the pressure switch and put it back on, it sometimes works. But now it also over fills.

Dave for Model Number Maytag Atlantis #MAV6200AWW

Answer Hello Dave, You will want to check to make sure that the pressure hose is not kinked or clogged. This would cause an overflow type of issue. It may be possible that the air dome had a clog that was keeping it from filling and when you took off it released the pressure and now it cannot read pressure because of the same clog or kink.

I have an overfill problem. I have checked the fill levels with out clothes to see where the water level is according to the water level switch position. It seems to be working properly. I have disconnected the air tube from the pressure valve and blew into the hose and can hear the air in the tub so I think that's ok. Using a multimeter, I checked the pressure switch by blowing into the switch and that is working correctly. I'm wondering if it might be taking to much pressure to activate the switch. Do you know the amount of pressure required to close the switch? The overfill problem seems to show up on the super wash setting on the water level switch. I checked the water level with a full load of clothes after the tub filled and it was correct. After the first wash cycle when it adds water is when the tub will fill to the very top. I'm tempted to replace the pressure switch but would like to be sure before i do. Perhaps you have more detailed trouble shooting instructions. Thanks for your help.

Answer Hello Larry, The pressure switch can be out of calibration and this is the first thing I would replace as there is no way to calibrate it outside of the factory. The only other thing that would cause this is the water inlet valve sticking or not closing properly due to low water pressure. If the unit only overfills sometimes, but not always, you could have a water pressure issue that only shows up when the unit tries to turn off the water while water is being used elsewhere in the home,(i.e. dishwasher filling, shower running, etc.).The pressure switch is the first consideration with the water inlet valve being second.

I too, have an over-fill problem. As it was filling, I pulled the electric plug and it stopped filling, so the inlet valves seem to work correctly. I blew the tubing that connects to the bottom of the tub to the water level switch - it was clear and cracks or splits. So that should be ok. Now this is what I want to know - as the tub was filling, the level in the tube was not seen. [Now it was not touched when it or something else failed]. But this time, without seeing a level in the tube, I pulled the tube off the bottom nipple to see if water was able to flow freely; which it did and i then reattached the tube and the level in the tube was now equal with the level of the tub. It just kept on filling right past where it should have stopped. So I drained it and this time on refilling at the small load setting again, I didn't touch the tube. The water level in the tube came up only 3/4" up the tube from out of the small plastic box with the nipple on outside bottom of tub. The tube level was 3" below the tub level when it correctly stopped filling and started its wash cycle. Is that all the higher the level in the tube should be?

Jonn for Model Number 11024952300

Answer Hello Jonn, When you removed the pressure switch hose with the tub full, you kind of created a new problem. In order to set it right I need you to perform the following. With the tub empty, remove the pressure switch hose from the pressure switch. Blow through it to purge any water from the hose. Now when you hook the hose back to the pressure switch, it can properly read the pressure to it from the tub. As far as seeing the water in the tube, water is not required in the tube to work properly. The pressure switch is reading the "pressure" that the weight of the water is pushing in the tube. If it is still filling, it has to be a bad pressure switch. When you blow through the pressure switch hose, you should do this from the pressure switch end. The purpose of this is to make sure the tub end hasn't clogged with lint.

The washer fills up normally on the fill cycle, but continues to oven fill. It will not go to the wash cycle, you have manually drain the wash.
