Thanh C. for Model Number mhw2000aww I had maytag model its was fine before. We never used it, it sited in couple of years, water leaking at the door. I turn the knob to off position,removed all clothes,and start regular cycle. Still leaking and spin too slow,and I tried another cycle,this time water not come in to washer. I had no idea what parts I should need.....?
Answer Hi Thanh. Examine the front door boot part # 12002533 for interior fold rips (caused by overloading). The outer door boot clamp is part # WP22002327. Feel the complete front door assy part # 22003083 to see if there is any debris stuck on the inner door holding the door boot from sealing properly. If the water valve solenoid is bad allowing the water to come in slowly, it will leak. Pull the top off. Remove the tub fill hose off the back of the pressure switch. Blow back into towards the tub. Did you feel like there was any debris removed ? If so hook it back up and see if it is OK now. Use Affresh washer tablets part # W10501250 monthly to keep the unit fresh and performing optimal. Use a small hose of this type to connect to the pressure hose during a fill. Blow into towards the pressure switch. Does the water stop filling now ? If not then replace the pressure switch part # WP22002921. Open the door. Specifically remove and lay out the door hinges. Remove the door. Slightly twist the top of the outer door panel and pull the front panel back. Lift up and off and set the front panel aside. Look at the pump. Is it leaking ? Use a shop vac. to clean the pump and the sump hoses. Feel inside the pump. Is the pump impeller spinning loose on the pump shaft ? The pump is part # WP22003059. Use the flashlight to see if all electrical connections are tight. Last but not least remove the power. Use a bucket and remove one fill hose at a time. Look inside the water valve inlet areas. Are the screens plugged ? If so this is a normal process because the water tank holds the hot water debris on the bottom of the tank and generally do not circulate much. The cold water has no where to go unless you have installed a whole house water filtration system. The cold water debris collect in the valve screens, allowing the debris to get into the mechanical solenoid plunger and keep it partially open. Allowing constant water fill. Part # WP22002437.
