Richard C Inwood , WV August 29, 2015 Appliance: Amana Washer NTW4600YQ1 Amana m/n: ntw4600yq1 would not drain or finish it's wash cycle traced issue to faulty drain pump I ordered the new pump (P/N: AP4514539) and spanner wrench (P/N: AP4503397). Both parts arrived a day earlier than expected (to my suprise). I removed the inner drum (which required the spanner wrench) and cleaned the inside of the tub, removed the cover over the drain and ensured that there was no debris stuck in the impeller, and replaced the failed pump. I found that the pump had failed due to left over sediment from really hard water. There was build up around the motor that had caused it to seize. All in all, the repair only took roughly an hour in one evening and when I restarted the washer, all functions returned to normal. I ran it through two cycles to ensure their there were no leaks. The customer service from appliancepartspros.com was better than our local parts store and I would highly recommend them for parts purchases. -RC.

Rick P Huntington Beach , CA June 22, 2019 Appliance: Maytag Washer MVWX700XW2 Water pump wouldn’t drain in Bravos x washer mvwx700xw2 Bravos X washer mvwx700xw2 bought in 2012. Washer wouldn’t drain just said sensing and wouldn’t complete cycle. I needed to remove the water by hand, next I unplugged it, and turned off water supplies. I purchased new pump it came in 2 days. You may need to remove remaining water that can’t be scooped out using drain hose in back of machine into a bucket. You can access the pump by tilting the machine on its side, I just tilted it onto a bucket with a towel on it so it wasn’t completely flat on the ground because o residual water in basket might spill out. You need to remove power cable from the pump then using pliers remove hose and 3 screws with a nut driver. Then just install new pump and machine worked great after that. There is a video that shows how to do this on their web site. I did check the error codes following a YouTube video but the really didn’t tell me the pump was bad, but there is a way to to check the lid lock, spin and pump etc in the diagnostic mode if you read the service manual.
