Jose March 06, 2014 for Model Number MAV2757AWW The washer spins, but leaves clothes more wet than before?
1 Answer Hello Jose, This sounds like there may be an issue in the timer causing the water valve to energize during the final spin. If you open the lid and actuate the lid switch, put the unit into spin and make sure there is no water dispensed during the final spin. If there is, you need to replace the timer. If not, make sure the unit is draining completely in about 90 seconds or the drain pump is not operating properly. Read More...
Alan February 24, 2014 for Model Number MAV-6300 AGW-39D-3 As the machine approaches rinse mode the machine stops, clicks, the tub turns slowly but it does not begin to empty, just makes a whirring sound.If you lift the lid up and down it then begins to drain properly, the same happens on the spin cycle as well. We have had the pump replaced twice, both 'lasting' 1 year. Somehow I don't think its the pump, your help would be greatly welcomed, thanks.
1 Answer Alan, With the symptoms that you have given, this issue does sound like the bearings in the pump are starting to go out. You will want to make sure that you are checking your pockets to make sure that no loose change is in them when washing and make sure that they are empty as this could be caused by that. Also check the pump to see if there is something lodged in it. Read More...

Casey September 29, 2013 for Model Number Maytag Atlantis Recently my washer began emitting a foul odor during the first load after not being used for a few days. I found that during the spin cycle the washer drains fibe but leaves a small amount of water in the line/pump andt then when the spin cycle stops the water backs up into the outer tub liner. What could be causing that and why won't the last little bit of water drain out when most of it does with ease? Thx Casey
1 Answer Casey, There will always be a little bit of water that will be left in the outer tub. If you are getting an odor then it may be that the washer needs to have a clean cycle run through it using afresh or washer magic to clean the unit out. This little bit of water that is left is for the purpose of keeping the seals from drying out. Read More...
Alex September 08, 2013 for Model Number AP4373022 Hi, we ordered this part, AP4373022, from you, but my father seems to have misplaced the screws that he removed when he took out the previous part. Would you happen to have the specifications for the screws needed so I'd be able to find replacements?
1 Answer Alex, the hex head screw is part number WP8534097. This item comes one per package. We do not have any other specs available for the pump screw. Thanks. Read More...
Don August 03, 2013 for Model Number MAVT634AWW Just pulled washer pump but cannot separate the pulley from the pump and therefore cannot get the mounting plate off. Looks like replacement pump does not have the mounting plate. How does the pulley come off?
1 Answer Don, The pulley does not come off the pump. The pump was redesigned to not have the mounting plate attached. You would just install the way it is. Read More...
Paula August 02, 2013 for Model Number mav6200aww Hi, we are having a problem with the washer. It was running fine until the other day for a few loads it was making odd noises and I just brushed it off the other day I put a load in and went to check on it and it filled all the way up and stopped. Opened the lid and it was smokey and smelled. We took the front off and it seems like the pump isn't working correctly when it spins it feels like its grinding. I'm pretty sure we have to replace the pump but when we took the front off and ran the washer I noticed that The motor moves is that normal? Almost like when the machine is on it pulls closer towards the bin. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help in advance!
1 Answer Paula, Yes the motor is supposed to move when switching direction. If the pulley on the pump is not turning then you will want to replace the pump and may want to replace the belt as well. Read More...
