Bill H. February 02, 2017 for Model Number A110 My unit is 34 years old and never had a repair. Smelled smoke when unit was set to wash a load. Possibly too many clothes in tub. Will not agitate. Will spin properly with clothes in washer. Checked pump and drive belts. Neither are broken. Do I need to change both belts? If so, do they come as a kit with both included?
1 Answer Hello Bill, You will need to order belt kit 12112425 for the two belts but this will not correct the problem. You will probably need to install kits 6-2095720 and 6-2040130 to correct a seizing spin bearing issue. Read More...
Kia July 11, 2016 for Model Number LST8420AAW Our washer Maytag washer quit draining water. It spins but does not drain. Is this an easy DIY fix and what kind of part would I order? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Kia. It sounds like the drain pump WP3363394 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Joejoe April 10, 2016 for Model Number LAT8705AAE In all wash types, once my tub fills with water, doesn't start to agitate right away. when it does, only lasts a minute - seams to go into a soak cycle for the entire wash. Sometimes I have to turn and pull out the knob a number of times in a clockwise direction before i can get it to start agitating. Belts?
1 Answer JoeJoe, No, not the belts. the problem would be electrical, not mechanical. Check the lid switch and lid, Make sure the lid and switch make constant contact during the cycle. then check the pressure switch and air tube, make sure there aren't any loose connections or wires, and the tube isn't twisted or kinked. Then repalce the timer of all checks are OK. Read More...
Mike January 11, 2016 for Model Number not sure I have a maytag washer. Was getting the burning smell so I replaced both the belts. The pump belt works but I can't get the transmission belt to turn the drum. I tried turning the transmission pulley by hand to see if I could turn the drum. I had to turn it quite a ways before the drum moved. Any ideas? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Mike. The brake would have the transmission stopped in the unit. You will need to turn the belt and see if it turns properly. If not, then you will need to order and replace the transmission on the unit. Read More...
Tim December 30, 2015 for Model Number Maytag LAT9205AAE My mother-in laws Maytag washer (LAT9205AAE) quit spinning yesterday. It does everything else, agitates, fills, drains, etc just fine. No noises or smells or smoke prior to the problem occurring. The belts are not slipping and appear to be the right tension. The motor does switch direction from agitate to spin cycles. The transmission pulley turns in both directions easily but does not turn the tub. It does turn the agitator. When I try to turn the tub from above (from inside the tub) using my hands it moves with difficulty (like the brakes are on) though smoothly in both directions without any grating or noises. When turning the tub from above I notice the transmission moves as the tube moves. Just guessing the transmission is not supposed to move when the tub turns on spin! Does this sound like the transmission or the tub bearing or something else? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Tim, When the unit goes into spin, the entire transmission and the spin basket should turn. If the pulley spins but htre transmission is not, there is an issue inside the transmission assembly 6-2097750. Read More...
Tom December 16, 2015 for Model Number LAT9416AAE This washing machine will agitate and will pump all the water out, but it will not spin out the water in the clothes. I bought new belts from appliance parts store and installed them. The tub pulley will turn easily counter clockwise but it is very hard to turn clockwise. Is this a problem in the brake and clutch?
1 Answer Hello Tom. It should be harder to turn because your releasing the brake on the unit. If it is too hard to turn, then either the transmission or the bearing 6-2040130 & 6-2095720 may be bad in the unit. You will need to check both of those. Read More...
Freda August 31, 2015 for Model Number MAYTAG LAT9400AAW 23 yrs old. never had repair. Noise when agitating, and agitator seems to be slipping. Bought new agitator locally (bad mistake) can't return after use. Didn't help, actually getting worse to point of agitation stopping altogether. Spins water out perfectly with no problems. Do I need to replace belts or is something more dire wrong. Wish I had found this site before I bought agitator. Thanks for any suggestions.
1 Answer Freda, With the noise and the agitator barely moving, the transmission of the unit would be the issue. The part number for the transmission is 6-2097750. Read More...
Jack February 19, 2015 for Model Number LAT8640BAW Washer works fine until the spin cycle. A light burning rubber smell is detected. I purchased and replaced both the drive & pump belts. The tub can be turned by hand and does not appear to have any obstructions. The motor spins. It appears the belt may not be getting enough traction possibly. Both springs are in place on the motor. Please advise.Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Jack, This sounds like the spin bearing 6-2095720, 6-2040130, may be seizing. If the problem increases the more you run the unit and it produces a loud roaring sound, this will be the issue. If not, you should check the drain pump WP6-2022030 for the possibility of the pump belt making the burning odor should debris be inside the pump. Read More...
