Frederick July 25, 2021 for Model Number MLE2000AYW Doesn’t drain and has no high-speed spin. So far: Changed drain pump. Checked drain hose height and for blockage. Changed wax motor. The old one had snapped off the actuator. Installed a new circuit board. Small improvement but clothes are still way too wet. I just ordered the belt and isolator. Now I just read about the door switch preventing hi-speed. Before I order is there a test for the old one to know for sure it’s bad? Haven’t had laundry in two weeks. Getting old! Anything else a cause for this condition?
1 Answer Frederick, the door lock/ spin enable switch WP22002162 can be tested for continuity. When the plunger is not pressed, there should not be continuity. When the plunger is pressed, there should be continuity. It would also be recommended that the spin basket is rotated by hand to identify if it can rotate freely. Read More...
Don March 08, 2020 for Model Number MAH5500AWW Washer washes continues up to rinse/spin cycle and timer knob goes through these 3 rinse cycles real fast (30 seconds) to off. Makes noise at each rinse cycle. No rinse or spin clothes soaked and wet. Which parts for this?
1 Answer Hello Don, on this washer model the main control board WP22002989 and the timer WP22002867 work together. Suggest you unplug the washer and access and check the main control board in the control panel area, , check both sides of the circuit board for any burns or overheated components. If any found the main board would need to be replaced, if no marks found likely you would need both the control board and the timer. Read More...
Robert April 04, 2016 for Model Number mle2000ayw Water left in drain tube, clothes do not get drained out. I checked drain pump for restrictions, everything is fine. This is a Maytag mle2000ayw. Could it be the door latch not allowing it to go into high speed spin what part should I replace ??? Thank you
1 Answer Rober, Yes the unit may not be going into high speed spin at the end of the cycle if the door lock assembly is not operating properly. There is a spin enable switch that must be activated and you will want to check to make sure that it is. The most likely cause for this to not activate would be a bad wax motor on the door lock assembly. Read More...
John December 03, 2014 for Model Number MAH4000AWW The spin cycle is not being completed on our Maytag washer. When it stops there is still a little water in the machine and the clothes are still wet. I've checked the control board and the R-11 resistor is not burnt out so the wax motor doesn't seem to be the problem. It sounds like it could also be one of the switches or something in the door lock . How can I tell if one of the switches is bad or where the problem is?
1 Answer John, With the clothes being wet and there being water left, you will want to check the drain pump to make sure that the drain does not have a restriction. For the switch you would check it for continuity but you will also want to check to make sure that the wax motor is extending enough to hit the spin enable switch. If not then the wax motor is bad.

Bob A. October 14, 2014 for Model Number Mah3000aww I have been advised to replace the wax motor before it fails and burns out the mother board. What is the part number for the wax motor please? Thanks, Bob

1 Answer Tony, You will want to check the spin enable switch to make sure that it is good. If faulty then it would need to be replaced. If the enable switch is bad the unit will not spin. Read More...
Manuel January 12, 2014 for Model Number Maytag MAH3000AAW My washer will not lock, it does go through all cycles but does not spin. I've already changed out the Motor-wax and one of the Switches, Door Lock Spin Enable. I didn't know there was two of them. What else could it be ?
1 Answer Hello Manuel. It could be the balance switches and if they are good, the motor and board assembly 12002039 for the unit. Read More...
Roxy December 29, 2013 for Model Number admiral clothing washer bought at home depot 2012 cheap model I want to remove the "safety" feature of locking washer door. I removed the magnetized hook, but the washer won't agitate. There must be something more. This feature is a big pain in the butt! I am smart enough not to put my hands, as I believe most people are.
1 Answer Hello Roxy, The door lock feature is not designed for the customers' convenience and while it may be a pain for you, I'm sorry but we cannot advise anyone on how to bypass a safety feature of any type on any unit. This would leave us vulnerable to a lawsuit should anything happen with the unit. Read More...
Joel October 07, 2013 for Model Number MAH20PNAWW The Maytag Front Load Washer is intermittently not spinning. What is the usual problem?
1 Answer Hello Joel. Check and see if the pump may be clogged. If not, check the basket and make sure it spins freely. If so, check the balance switches and the spin enable switches on the unit. Read More...
Greg July 21, 2013 for Model Number MAH3000 Need to diagnose problem with washer. Machine will stop anywhere in the wash cycle. Checked wax motor. It is locking. Checked R11 and it is not burned. Propped a piece of wood against the door to insure a tight seal and still the problem persist. Can start the machine again by simply pressing the Start Button and it will continue in its cycle and stop again somewhere else in the cycle. Sometimes it will go through to the third rinse cycle and not do a final spin. Again, when and where it stops is inconsistent. Problem started after I replaced the door boot (bellows). What do I need to check next?
1 Answer Hello Greg, First, make sure the selector buttons are fully engaged for the selections for the wash. You should then check out the out-of-balance circuit. As long as the door lock light is working, I don't believe it will be an issue. Be aware that the manufacturer has recommended that if a micro-switch for out-of-balance is on the left rear strut, cut the wires and splice them directly together to eliminate the switch from the circuit. Don't forget to pull on the two big blue wires in the front center that go to the switch down there. I have seen them simply pull out from a broken wire. This is also in the out-of-balance circuit.
