The hose clamp is used to hold the water hose in place which will prevent the hose from leaking water. Sometimes the clamp may lose its ability to latch on, causing a leaking washer. For the installation, you will need a flat head screw driver to replace the clamp and a drill to access the screws to remove the front of the washer. Be careful if you do not have specific clamp pliers as the clamp could fly off. Once the front of the washer has been removed, take a quick look for water damage or any obvious signs of where the leak is coming from. If it is not obvious, run water to test.

Appliance spray paint is a great way to cover up any chips and scratches that have appeared on your appliances. Instead of replacing the part entirely, this is an easy fix. This is also a great way to give a fresh new look to any handles or areas that have discoloring due to wear. Make sure to clean the area before you begin and wear a protective mask for safety. Give the can a good shake and spray a few inches away from the surface. Apply the paint until the area is fully covered as desired. Wait until the paint has dried before using the appliance.

Does this model have a filter that should be cleaned? Sometimes there is a lot of lint on the clothes that have been washed.
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Karen, thank you for reaching out. Your model comes with the drain pump filter, part number PS16660526. It must be cleaned regularly. If the filter is clogged, the water from the wash and rinse cycle with all the lint drains too slowly and leave deposits on your clothes. Glad to be of help!

owned this for roughly 6 mos it will not do anything except it says sensing for a few minutes then it say wash complete. From what i’ve read it’s a common problem with this model most say clutch is bad and needs replaced HOW SAD WE SPEND OUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON A “maytag” ONLY TO DISCOVER THEY ARE JUNK AND WONT STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCT OR AT LEAST THE LABOR
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Tim, Thank you for your inquiry. Researching your model, we show it can be an issue with the water level pressure hose, the water level pressure switch which is part of the control board, the water inlet valve, the lid lock or the lid strike. You can test the parts with a multimeter. It can also be a loose wiring connection going to the drain pump, so test the connections and look for any loose or damaged wires, Good luck with your repair.

Loud when it spins, sounds like it’s going to take off
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Tim, thank you for reaching out. The issue is most probably because of the fault in bearings. They come attached to the gear case, part number PS16730208. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Gale - For model number MVW7230HW1

I took the hoses off and lost the blue filter, replaced the hoses and now when it off the water keeps dripping
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Gale, thank you for your inquiry. The “blue filter” is likely a protective screen that sits inside the washing machine's water inlet valve connection point. Look for any visible debris or damage in the connection port on the machine's back. Unscrew the hose from the back of the washing machine and ensure a rubber washer/gasket is present and properly seated inside the hose coupling. If the rubber washer is fine and the dripping persists, you will need to replace the water inlet valve, part number PS16744968, to fix the issue. Glad to be of help!
