A107S Maytag Washer - Instructions

followed simple directions... no brainer.
just be careful - shut off water and unlug first.

I was only missing one of the bumpers but that was in pretty poor shape so I replaced them both. It didn't take much to do. Just pressed the bumper into place and Viola! instant gratification.

Very helpful to have the parts diagram to see how to access the fill tube here on PartsSelect. Removed the two screws holding the front panel on and then undid the two hex head bolts so the lid could be tilted back. The previous repair stories posted here really helped in analyzing what to purchase. Only bought the rubber tube and injector nozzle. The plastic housing looked OK. Undid the hose clamp and out came the rubber tube. A little liquid soap on the outside and slid the tube into the housing, and hooked back the feed line. Ran the fill for a little bit to ensure the leak was gone. Re-installed the screws to attach the top and the front panel. For $20 in parts and shipping, solved the leak and machine is back in business. Thanks really helpful web site.

I turned the washer over and slipped off the old belt and then slipped on the new. The motor was spring loaded making the pepair extremely easy requiring no tools.

First, I read the stories posted on the partselect website which were very helpful.

Then I just repeated the procedure followed by others who had had the same problem, installed the new parts, and the machine was fixed.
Great idea to have this feature on your website.

First thing unpluged power cord from wall outlet, removed hot and cold water supply hoses.Then took out srew holding metal plate ,pulled plate out exposing valve, marked wires and diconnected.Pulled clamp and hose from valve.Pulled out valve and reinstalled new.Reconnected wires and hose.Installed screw to hold in place, reconnected hot and cold supply hoses.Plug unit back in. Job done.Washer works like new.

Once I got the washer top off, if was easy to see the water leak and with the parts, very to fix. The parts I ordered where received very quickly. Good service.

When the inlet valve closed, after dispensing water, it did so slowly and with a groan or squeak. Same during rinse & spin.

The video was clear on how to get it out from the back and replace with a new unit. Only problem I had was not pushing the outlet hose all the way back down onto the new inlet valve -- it leaked pretty dramatically but was an easy fix.

When pulling the inlet valve, I saw the inlet hoses where starting to slightly leak at their connectors, so I replaced them.

As I had never replaced the belts on this 20+ year old Maytag, I swapped them out at the same time. All I had to do is tilt the washer back and pull off the old belts & replace them in reverse order.

The videos were a great help.

After removing the front cover and draining the tub, I replaced the drain pump and the washer works as good as new.

Took all the parts related to the drive shaft and replaced the tub seal. We also replaced drive and pump belts due to an overheating smell coning from washer a couple months back.

unscrewed the old one! installed the new one! That simple. And I'm female, how easy was that!

First I removed the front of the washing machine and removed the two bolts that held the top in place. I then replaced the spring. The spring was a little tricky because I had to use a screwdriver to stretch the spring enough to fit.

I watched the YouTube video twice and it was just as easy as in the video. No problems. I ran a couple of test loads and it was back working like a champ. My parents had their belt changed by a repair man and it cot them $150 (pretty reasonable). This whole repair cost only $45 and 15 minutes (including the video watching time!). It pays to do the simple things.

I unplugged machine and removed water and clothes. Tipped washer bback to gain acccess to belts, which slipped off and back on quite easily. Put washer back in place, plugged in and continued washing clothes. Simple!

Just as the video described.... Unplugged the machine, turned off the water, both hot and cold. Unhooked the hoses (replaced them at this time since they were over 5 years old). Took out the top screw holding the frame piece and removed from machine. Took off the wires and the output hose. Removed the valve ass'y from the frame piece. Matched new to the original and reassembled in reverse order.
