A8210 Maytag Washer - Instructions

Shut water off and unplugged. Used channel locks to remove hoses. Used nut driver to remove mounting plate. Disconnected electrical connections to solenoids. Broke one. Had to replace. Used nut driver to loosen fill hose. Rusty and broke. Cut hose. Used new clamp to secure fill hose to fill solenoids. Stripped and crimped on new connector and replaced electrical connections as they were removed. Reinstalled hoses and plugged in. Tested A-OK.

Removed 6 screws to access the top left area where the water hose brings water into the tub. Photographed the area before disassembling the injector valve and nozzle. Replaced the two parts with the new parts and reassembled. The only real problem was in getting the plastic nozzle properly placed inside the rubber valve. The nozzle was difficult to insert deeply enough to properly position the rubber sleeve on the valve. After a few minutes of working with it and adding some lubricant, and after worrying I would bend or break the plastic nozzle, I got it right. So far, there's been no further leakage.

All I had to do was take the front of the washer off by unscrewing two screws at the bottom front panel using a screw driver, then loosen the top by taking two hexnut screws out from under the top (in front top corners of the washer. Next, I lifted the top of the washer up (which is on hinges, disconnected one hose clap at the top rear laft corner of the washer and pulled out the rubber injector valve which has the plastic injector nozzle inside of it. I inserted the new plastic onzzle in the new rubber valve, placed it back in the hose, tightened the hose clamp and replaced the screws in the top of the washer and put the front panel back in place and screwed in the bottom. It could not have been simpler and saved me at least $60-$80 dollars in repair costs.(I know because I paid to have this replaced once before, but never again.)

watched video, ordered parts, parts arrived fast in two days, watched video again, Repaired washer saved money

Remove front panel removed two screws holding top down, then removed plastic tube cover, removed balancer to make more room to work. Next removed set screw holding dasher, next remove spanner nut that held inner tube shield. Tthen lifted inner tube out of washer, now I removed the stem hold down and seal important clean area where seal touches the tube nowuse little water to wet new seal pt new seal ln careful not to damage simply reverse removal step and put the unit back together

The repair went fairly smooth following the directions that came with the damper pad kit from partselect.com. It only took as long as it did because the glue has to dry for the pads and it takes a few minutes to scrape off the old pads and glue. this can definitely be done by a first time do it yourselfer. Pliers are needed to remove a spring hose clamp in the back of the washer drum. Two 4x4's are needed to rest the washer drum on in order to gain access to the pads (in directions provided).

contacted Justanswer.com with description. Expert defined problem, identified part need and gave us link to your website. Rapid arrival of part, but we took a couple of weeks to get around to it as the washer was operational, just noisy. Website video of how to do repair was invaluable. Watched prior to starting the job and checked video again during repair to verify understanding. Wonderful to be independent of the vagaries of appliance repair. I would recommend Justanswer and PartSelect to anyone!

The most important part of my repair was watching the video that was sent to me with my order confirmation. After I viewed it, the rest was easy. The only hard part was moving the washer away from the wall!

Exactly as shown in your provided video from You Tube. What a life saver. The description of needed tools, and the fact that the main nuts securing the tub were REVERSE thread! I would not have suspected that and probably would still be beating on them, tightening them rather than loosening them!It is worth the price to purchase the spanner wrench (correct style), used to remove those tub nuts. Thanks for the great service and the video. Well done!

I found on youtube that there are directions to repair. Dryer problems are usually one of three things, the door switch being one of them. i checked this last (should have been first). ordered the part( about 65% off sear's cost) and it came in one day! It went on really easy as long as you knew from repair video how to access inside. almost spent $400.00 on a new one.

Located leak. Removed part. After entering model and serial numbers located necessary part order number. Received quickly and had everything back in working order immediately! Please note when working with scaled and lime build-up on parts, I completely clean surrounding areas and necessary related parts with "lime-away" prior to new part installation!!!

I ordered the part. Watched the video and did the repair. I removed the cover plate on the washer, removing the screws. I then, removed the broken water inlet valve and replaced it with the new one. I placed the cover plate back onto the rear of the washer and "VOILE", it was done. I am a divorced mother of three, who has never attempted to do any type of home repairs, however, the way PartSelect has set up the website, it made it easy to determine what part I needed and provided me with a video which gave me step by step instructions on how to repair it. I even posted my victory on Facebook! Thanks PartSelect.

Removed front panel, Removed bolts holding top, from below, Raised top. Loosened Hose Clamp holding injector valve into fill hose. Removed destroyed Rubber injector valve, and took plastic piece from it. Reassembled. It was a snap. $18.00 parts and shipping. I am sure it saved me a bundle.

The repair went well.I had to replace the seal under the tub.The video was the key to my success,I did not have a spanner wrench,I don't think it would have helped anyway,The nut was corroded I had to drill holes and chisel it apart after that it was no problem.

I did an internet search for a leaking washer and came across this web site.I looked under my washer model and it showed the repair parts plus it has a video of a repairman doing the job.The video was none the less the best help I could ever imagine.Tools needed and how to do the job a step at a time.The parts came to my door in two days via regular shipping method.I also purchased the special SPANNER WRENCH on eBay for about 10 bucks and it showed up the same day as my parts.The job took me about a hour and now my washer works like it should with no leaks.Thanks to Parts Select I highly recommend this site and their my new lifesaver.
