Jim L Seneca , KS September 25, 2015 Appliance: Maytag Atlantis Washer MAV6200AWW Maytag Washer Mav6200aww: The washer would make a loud squeaking noise in sync with the agitation. How to replace Shaft Seal. I attempted to simply lubricate the old seal, but that resulted in a black residue getting on the clothes. So I purchased and installed a new seal. The squeak went away and washer appears to be working. 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
