Terry M Cedar Rapids , IA April 10, 2016 Appliance: Maytag Washer- Horizontal Axis MAH5500BWW Maytag Washer Mah5500bww: Seal failed along with bearings it protected washer sounded like a loud airplane engine when running. How to replace Lip Seal Kit. Replaced bearings and lip seal kit. Along with these I replaced the door boot seal that had significant mold (not replaced under earlier recall). Amazingly, cleaning mess left by failed seal and bearings along with residues from years of use took as long as the repair.
