Debra November 20, 2025 I have a whirlpool stacked washer and dryer and when I hit start button the red light comes on and when I push start a couple more times the sensor light will come on ( green light) then push start and water starts to fill the tub then stops
1 Answer Hello Debra, thank you for contacting AppliancePartsPros.com We will need the model # of the appliance to be able to assist with diagnosis. Please resubmit your question with the model # so that we can look into this for you. Read More...
Kasime February 03, 2025 for Model Number MVWX655DW1 Hello, so my Machine stops in the washing mode and from there you can hear a clicking sound that usually goes to the next mode but instead it continues to click and the SENSOR light flashes. I did a sensor code: FIRST BLINK the sensing light Rinse and done light flashed and on the 2nd BLINK just the Spin light came on. I hope you can help me , THANK YOU for your time!!
1 Answer Hello Kasime, thank you for contacting Appliance Parts Pros. That is an F5E2 code, this means the lid hasn't locked or it cannot "see " that the lid has locked. Usually, this is due to a failed lock motor/solenoid or lock switch, which is part of the lock assembly [W11307244]. I'd recommend replacing that lid lock assembly. Read More...
Tim August 22, 2024 for Model Number WTW4816FW2 The motor makes a throbbing noise and the washer will not aggt. or spin. Take the belt off the motor the motor will spin if i turn the pulley. after running i can stop the pulley with my fingers. what else other than the motor could be bad
1 Answer Hello Tim, thank you for contacting APP, This is an issue with the Capacitor W11158830 / W11158830 or the Motor-Drve W10890624 / W10890624. You may try testing the motor with a multimeter. Unplug the unit, access the motor, and unplug the harness from the motor. Take a resistance reading on the contacts of the motor where the Red wire was with the harness connected to where the Orange or Yellow wire was with the harness connected. This should be about 6 to 12Os resistance. If this is out of range replace the motor. If the motor is reading in range replace the capacitor. Read More...
David March 06, 2024 Whirlpool washer is continually breaking the shift actuator. Any idea what causes this. I've been getting maybe 1 or 2 loads before it breaks again.
1 Answer David, We will need the model number to properly research your issue and give you the correct information and part numbers for the machine you are working on. With that said it sounds like the likely issue would be in the splutch (clutch) kit. Read More...
Zak February 04, 2024 for Model Number mvwc565fw2 Hello, I have a Maytag model# mvwc565fw2 that the shift actuator arm keeps popping out of the clutch linkage/ring. Is it best to replace both clutch assembly and actuator with this constant failure? Or is there something else I'm missing that is the culprit for this issue? Should the clutch link/ring move freely when actuator is off? For context its about 3 years old and has done it 4 times in the last 6 months, today right after reinstalling actuator then worked fine
1 Answer Zak, If the arm of the actuator is bent or the green screws that hold it in are loose this could happen. Otherwise, it sounds like the clutch [splutch assembly] needs to be replaced. Read More...
Korey February 04, 2024 I have both the motor and shifter fault codes on my washer, how do I know which one is the true culprit?
1 Answer Korey, These parts can be tested with a multimeter. Locate the tech sheet inside the cabinet on the front wall upper left corner and follow the testing procedures. Read More...
Brian January 19, 2024 for Model Number MVWX655DW1 The washer seems to work ok under rinse/drain...it drains but the agitator seems to spin extremely fast and yet the tub barely moves. If it's the shift activator...is there a way to test it before replacing it?
1 Answer Brian, the shift actuator W10913953 motor can be tested for resistance and it should measure between 2K to 3.5K Ohms. The arm and the clutch assembly W10721967 would need to be inspected for indications of being damaged. Read More...
Big John January 06, 2024 for Model Number MVWX655DW1 I have a Maytag washer model #MVWX655DW1. The washer will not actuate right. The actuator moves very little, clothes just soak in the water and not being cleaned or washed. It does go through final spin cycle. I replaced the Drive Belt. But washer still not working right. Actuator still moving very little. Do you think it's the Shift Actuator. If so, I can replace that. Thank You
1 Answer Big John, the motor W11283592 windings will need to be tested for resistance. There should be a resistance reading between 3.5 to 6 Ohms when testing from terminal 2 to terminal 3, and from terminal 2 to terminal 4. If the motor windings fail, the motor would need to be replaced. If they test good, the capacitor W11395618 would need to be tested for 50uf after discharging the capacitor and setting a meter to capacitance. If the capacitor tests good, the likely cause of failure would be the main control W11116592. Read More...
Daniel August 30, 2023 for Model Number 110. 25132411 My clothes are still soaking wet after the end of a wash cycle. I have run the diagnostic test mode and the error code indicates that there is something wrong with the lid lock mechanism. Twice I have replaced it and will solve the problem for a week and then it goes back to the original problem. I've read it could be a problem with the strike but the lid does lock. The only other trouble shooting solution I have seen is to replace the main control board. Is this correct?
1 Answer Daniel, Double-check the connections at the board then the next likely issue would be the board. Read More...
Adam August 14, 2023 for Model Number mvw6230hw I have a maytag washer mvw6230hw. It wasnt agitating.(only spinning w drum). I replaced actuator and it worked correctly for one load and broke on the next. Something in the actuator is breaking. When i turn gear one way it turns drum and ag. When turn the other only ag turns. Nothing seems to be locked up. Would this be splutch? There isnt anything noticeably wrong with it. Or Control board? Thanks for your help Adam
1 Answer Hello Adam, this may be caused by a problem in the drive clutch (splutch) W10721967, however if either the shifter or clutch fails again then there is a mechanical problem in the gearcase W11449840. Read More...
