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.

Lori H Coloma , WI July 24, 2023 Not spinning clothes dry. Soppy wet clothes. Previously 2 years had a repairman fixed the same issue. He was very knowledgeable and I watched him fix it. I did the same this time without a service call or a markup on the parts. Was an easy fix. Thank you for the parts availability and your videos. Read More...

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
