Lorrie November 27, 2023 for Model Number MVWC6ESWWO The only cycle that works now is the "hand wash" cycle. The machine starts to aggitate (with out filling with water first) when I try any of the other cycles. I am guessing I need a new timer?
1 Answer Lorrie, Usually replacing this part fixes that issue. WPW10292584. Read some comments on that part page. Read More...
Jason November 10, 2022 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 The washer only agitates in one direction, It runs the extra rinse when not selected and sometimes starts agitating while filling.
1 Answer Jason, Based on the information provided it sounds like you are having an issue with the ATC control and the agitator dogs. WPW10248240 80040 Read More...
Robert C July 28, 2022 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 Maytag top load washer stopped after fill cycle and will not restart. I checked the kid switch and it wasn't working properly. The plastic has lost some of its elasticity and is not working properly. I was able to rig it so it's functional until the replacement arrives. However, the washer is still not turning on. I also check the power outlet (it's fine). Checked the power cord for continuity, it's fine. What else should I check before I just start guessing and ordering and swapping parts?
1 Answer Robert, it would be recommended that the timer is tested for 120VAC at the gray wire found at terminal 2. If there is not 120VAC, the lid switch is likely stuck in the open position if there is 120VAC reaching it through the black wire. If there is not voltage reaching the lid switch through the black wire, the power cord can be switched to a different outlet to test run the unit. Read More...
Calamity3 April 05, 2021 for Model Number MVWC7ESWW0 Our Maytag washer has given us great service for 11 years now. It must have gotten tired or Covid because now it fills with water, spins it out, spins some more, fills with water and just sits there like it is skipping cycles or something. It does not agitate on the wash cycle and my wife is tired of draining the water by hand so I either need a fix or a new washer. I am hoping for the fix. What can you tell me? Jerry
1 Answer Calamity3, You will want to check the drain pump to ensure that it is not clogged or damaged. It could be as simple as this being faulty not allowing agitation or drain if it is seized up. Also, check the motor coupler on the unit to make sure that it is good. Read More...
Fred Allen April 08, 2020 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 On my washer the clothes are still wet after they finish the spin cycle. I have replaced the temp sensor switch and it worked correctly for about 3 weeks. Now it's started again I have to spin the clothes twice to get all of the water from clothing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Fred, Check to make sure that the unit is not getting off balance. This would be one of the most common causes of the issue. If it is not getting off balance then check to make sure that the drain pump does not have debris in it causing a slower drain. The temp switch should not cause a spin issue with the unit.

Noah March 10, 2020 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 My Maytag washer starts washing before filling with water so while washing & filling at the same time the timer is slowly turning & gets almost to the first rinse before it stops filling. This happens on all cycles. I think I need a new timer. What do you think my problem could be? Thank you Noah
1 Answer Hello Noah, this symptom occurs when the relay in the electronic load sensing/temp control switch is stuck closed, the replacement part is WPW10248240. It is powering the motor run circuit before the correct water level is reached. Read More...
Dave Meloh March 09, 2020 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 We recently installed W10243947 for our washer MVWC6ESWW1 but there is a big dial that controls the washer cycles. Originally you can hear the clicks as the dial turns on this part. the gear is stripped or bad inside some how the dial only turns a little and it turns a little better if you squeeze the part you can hear the clicks. Any suggestions??
1 Answer Dave M, The dial for your machine has been discontinued by the manufacturer, but the clicking sounds are normally from the inside of the timer and if it is stripped the only solutions is to replace it as the internal parts are not available. Our part number for the timer is WPW10243947 Read More...
Richard January 10, 2020 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 I recently replaced the timer on my washer but with the new timer the washer stops when it gets to the "rinse" cycle. If I push the control knob in and pull it out again, washer continues with its cycle. Is there a simple solution other than replacing the timer again?
1 Answer Richard, check the wiring harness between the temperature switch WPW10248240 and the timer control on the back of the timer. Check the wiring to the water valve and check to make sure you get hot, warm and cold water to and through the fill valve WPW10175893. The more likely issue is the PCB inside the water temp. switch has a failed circuit and has to be "hard reset" to make it fill in the rinse cycle(cold water). Read More...
Rick February 14, 2017 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 The water will pump out during spin cycle but will not spin unless I open the lid .
1 Answer Rick, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty neutral drain which is inside the gearcase. The part number for the neutral drain will be 388253A. Read More...
Bradley January 19, 2017 for Model Number MVWC7ESWW0 When I select a wash mode the machine starts to wash immediately. And at the end of cycle it will not spin out, in certain modes. I can hear the timer working, but it seems to not be aligned like it should be. Thank you for any help that is forth coming!
1 Answer Hello Bradley. You will need to replace the timer WPW10243947 and control WPW10104800 to repair the unit. Read More...
