William B. November 08, 2016 for Model Number LAT9806AAM My washer works fine at times then on occasions it will stop in a cycle, if I tap the left side of the machine it will start back up. Over the past years, I replaced the timer and lid switch and belts and the machine is level. The only thing I see is the hot water hose is swollen but its not plugged up, I am replacing it. Any help would be great
1 Answer William, A couple of quick easy checks to make. Open the loading lid 1/2 to 3/4 of the way up, try to move the lid up and down and wiggle it side to side. If there's too much play, check or replace the lid hinge balls WP211726. Check the lid bumpers and make sure they're there and no too damaged. Close the lid, raise the lid 3/4 to 1 inch open. If you hear the lid switch activate before the 1 inch is met, you'll need to adjust the lid switch assembly, it's set too sensitive if the lid hinge balls, and bumpers aren't damaged. Read More...
Bj August 21, 2015 for Model Number LAT9804AAE My maytag top loading washer's cold water will not shut off. It continues to fill and run over the top. The hot water works fine. What part should I order to repair this problem? Thanks
1 Answer Hello BJ. If you can stop the water from entering the machine by turning off the timer or unplugging the unit, you will need to look for a bad pressure hose or replace the pressure switch. If the only way to shut off the water is at the shut off for the water hoses, you will need to replace the water valve in the unit. Read More...
Greg January 25, 2012 for Model Number LAT9706AAE I order the replace intake valve and the replace part has 3 coils. When I look at the original valve it is a 2 coil valve. Is this the correct replacement part? What do you do with the 3rd coil which is off to the side?
1 Answer Hello Greg! The wrong valve was ordered. There is a series change within the valves and the two port valve is part number WP22001274. You can return the incorrect valve, please use the following link to request your return. Thanks! http://www.appliancepartspros.com/customerservice/returns.aspx Read More...
