Giulio May 01, 2021 for Model Number LA712 The T-20 set screw on the mounting stem is frozen due to corrosion. Tried penetrating products to free it up, but nothing worked. How do I remove it so I can go to the next step and remove the stem? Also, assuming no amount of hammering will turn the old mounting stem so I can unscrew it, how do i get the old corroded stem off too? I have the new parts from APP, if only I can remove the old parts my repair will be on track.
1 Answer Giulio, Try using an impact tool to try and get the screw loose to remove it. This would be the best option other than drilling it out. Read More...
Johnny September 12, 2020 for Model Number LAT8804AAE This Maytag is 26 years old. I replaced the agitator drive shaft parts but I don't know how to put on the retaining clip. thank you
1 Answer Johnny, if you also replaced the 6-2095720 Mounting Stem Repair Kit, you won't need the WPY015667 retaining ring, or the WPY015666 Washer, Retaining(cent). The replacement part has been revised and redesigned and the washer and clip are no longer needed or used. If not, and you have the "original" mounting stem kit, you will need to install the center seal/agitator seal (small end down) into the mounting stem, then place the washer on top of the seal, carefully press down on the washer and seal until the washer is past the preformed groove inside the top of the mounting stem, then place the retainer clip into the groove(a small flat blade screwdriver will be helpful to seat the clip into the groove). Start at the top of the clip insert it first, then work the remainder one side at a time, and make sure the clip "seats" into the groove. Thanks, Read More...
1 Answer Hello Brad. The ring WPY015667 goes onto the shaft of the transmission under the agitator. Hope this helps. Read More...
