Moon for Model Number MAV275AWW I noticed that the clothes are still wet after a REGULAR washing cycle. It is the cycle I frequently use. This is the Maytag Insignia 2006 Serial #261-062-75JC. My neighbor is a handyman and suggested changing the drive belt which appeared pretty loose. So I did but the clothes were still wet at the end. I opened the lid by placing a flathead screwdriver gently into the switch so I could watch the spin cycle. I then saw the spin start but it never gained speed. Next thing a few spins in, the agitator 'woke up' and started agitating. This happened after about 5 -6 seconds. Eventually, this action pulled the clothes off the wall, unbalancing the load and caused it to spin even slower. I love this machine- it is old-style - I would love to have advice on which part to buy and how to fix it. Can you please help me?
Answer Moon, there are a couple of other components to check, the first being the 12002213/12002213 Thrust Bearing Kit, if or when this assembly "wears out" it will not engage the transmission and create a "poor" spin performance, and can cause intermittent engagement of the agitation shaft, by now the thrust bearing cam and spacers are pretty well worn and is the most likely issue. Also, check and make sure the motor moves feely on the slide plate and the slide plate is clean and free of dust and debris. Thanks, Read More...
