W J Panama City Beach , FL February 26, 2023 Appliance: Maytag Washer MVWC565FW1 Agitator drive failed I had to cut the old agitator out with an oscillating saw in order to access the agitator drive. This is the second Maytag (MVWC 565) I have had to do this to. I first tried removing it by sliding straps under the agitator then then using a jack to pull it loose which did not work either time. One suggestion I have would be to remove debris from tub as you cut in order to prevent it from dropping from the inner tub into the outer tub.

Scott R Lawrenceburg , IN January 20, 2024 Appliance: Maytag Washer MVWX655DW1 The drive hub was bad. I ordered the drive clutch, the drive hub, and replaced both of them. Only needed the hub, but since I had it apart I went ahead and did both anyhow. The videos were a great help in getting these repairs done. Having them simplifies the repair process. The parts went in without an issue. A $100 fix is better than spending a $1000 on a new washer. Videos were a big help, parts were delivered quickly and they were the right parts. The last time I had to repair an appliance Sears parts centers were still in business. With the videos, this service was as seemless and efficient as Sears was. In fact it was better due to the access of the videos. Minus the wait for parts. Even then I didn’t have to leave the house. Thanks for the help, & look forward to using your service in the future.

Paul F Hawley , TX December 27, 2022 The agitator gear worn code s2 or 52 (display had to tell) basket wouldn't spin. I replaced the drive gear again. I replaced the gear back in the summer, but apparently, the screws had backed out a little and it was enough to make the drive shaft chew up the gear. Going forward I'm going to periodically check the screws and if they start backing out again I may put some blue Loctite on them. I can't understand why plastic drive gears are used in a high efficiency washing machine. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers, Socket Set
