Rich June 15, 2014 for Model Number WTW6500WW1 There is a button or coin trapped down in the motor assembly. Before taking apart, is there a kit or certain gaskets that I should have available to replacement?
Kim April 03, 2014 for Model Number wtw6600sw2 Got a F-50 error code....replaced wiring harness and rps sensor, thinking it was the sensor. No Luck still receiving the f-50 error code, Any suggestions?
1 Answer Hello Kim. F then 50 flashes when the motor rotor position sensor (RPS) senses no rotation. ? Does basket turn freely? If not, clear the obstruction. If it does, then you will need to order and replace the board if the wire harness and the rps sensor is new. Read More...
Ron S February 09, 2014 for Model Number mtw6600tqo I have a Maytag Bravo and we noticed water on the floor under the machine. I looked under the machine and notived water and a black greasy ring on the floor under the rotor. I also noticed the screw holding the rotor on had come loose and backed out of the rotor about 3/4 of an inche. I tightened this and blocked up the machine and run it thru the cycle. When it got to the agitating part of the cycle it was leaking around the rotor. I like the machine and want to fix it. Is this a seal ?
1 Answer Hello Ron. You need to order part numbers W10435302 and W10447783 to repair the unit. Read More...
Scott January 01, 2014 for Model Number whirlpool cabrio wtw6400sw3 Just replaced bearings,shaft and seal due to water leaking and loud spin cycle. Wash basket spins very free. When I install rotor I am able to feel a drag or vibration. Do not see any place were this is touching still have f 54 fault code.
1 Answer Scott, You will want to do the motor circuit test on page 4 of the tech sheet. The F54 is a motor circuit overcurrent. Read More...
Raymond H. August 28, 2013 for Model Number Whirlpool Cabrio I am having a similar problem that I see so many others having. I get the UL code when the rinse and spin cycle starts. When the cycle starts, there is a rubbing sound. When the UL stops the drum, I open it and try rotating the drum the rubbing sound is still there. I thought it was the bearings, but I removed the rotor from the stator and then rotated the drum and the sound and resistance is gone and it rotates smooth and quiet. The rotor is covered in black dust. Do I need a new rotor? Thanx.
1 Answer Hello Raymond, The motor rotor has to be out of round. You will need to verify that no damage has been done to the stator windings. I would have looked up the part numbers for you but as with all appliances, the parts for each specific model have to be looked up by the model number. Read More...
Chuck August 24, 2013 for Model Number matag mvw8450wq0 Code F51. Water starts and stops. Does the rotor need timed.
1 Answer Chuck, The rotor on the unit does not get timed. The F51 error code is a representation that the Rotor position sensor is faulty and would need to be replaced. The part number for the sensor is WPW10178988. Read More...
Lobny August 17, 2013 for Model Number wtw6400sw1 My Whirlpool Cabrio is giving me a UL code and it usually will stop the cycle when there is about 12-16 min remaining. Can you please tell me the reason for this and the parts that I would need to exchange.
1 Answer Lobny, The UL error code is an indication of an unbalanced load. The UL will appear when the machine/motor control detects an off balanced load, and is steady on while the washer runs a mini-cycle to rebalance the load. The display will clear if the mini cycle is successful at rebalancing the load. If the mini cycle is unsuccessful then the UL will flash until the door lid is opened. At this point you would need to redistribute the load. If this is unsuccessful then you will need to check the rods that support the tub and make sure that they are not damaged or that they are out of position. It may need to have the rods replaced.

Kevin July 12, 2013 for Model Number WTW6200VW0 My whirlpool washer is making loud noise at spinning cycle?
1 Answer Hello Kevin. The bearings are bad. You will need to replace the outer tub assembly W10193886 or the bearings W10435302 in the unit. You will need to order the tool W10447783 if just doing the bearings. Read More...
Josh June 12, 2013 for Model Number mtw6600tbo Hello I have a maytag bravos mtw6600tbo the problem I'm having is that the washer will go all the way through cycles, until spin cycle then the whole tub and everything bounces out of control and hit the inside of the cabinet, now the problem is I have already replaced the suspension and the machine still does the same thing, although if I grab the outer tub and wiggle the actual basket it seems to wobble, but the hub appears to be OK, I really want to fix this machine, also everything quiet and no bearing noises or anything, not sure where to go next. Please any help would be much appreciated
1 Answer Josh, You will want to make sure that the inner tub is not loose causing the unit to wobble. Also check to make sure that the agitator shaft is not loose. If the agitator shaft is loose then you will need to replace the bearings for the unit. Read More...
Dennis April 27, 2013 for Model Number maytag nomtw6500tqo the spin cycle is now too loud is it the rotor
1 Answer Dennis, We wouldn't expect the rotor 280146 to make noise, it's pretty much stationary. You most likely have an issue with the tub bearings and shaft W10435302 and the tool W10447783 will be required to change out the parts. Read More...
