PAV2300AWW Maytag Washer - Instructions

The repair was easy. 5 minutes after grabbing my tools the job was done. It was easy to find the part I needed on the web site.

..watched the video..easy as pie..took longer to figure out what part was making noise than to fix..

When I received the replacement part it did not look exactly the same as the one that came off the washer. After watching the video that was sent with the shipment confirmation I very clearly understood it and was able to do repair in about 10 minutes. It was so easy, I wish that there were more repairs to do to take advantage of your wonderful customer service. You have created a customer for life. Thank you

turned off the water, drained the water from the machine, pulled it out and removed the back plate on the machine. disconnected all hoses and belts, then removed part. inserted new pump, 3 self tapping screws later the hosed were attached, then the back plate. worked like a champ after that and saved me at least 200 bucks.

We went on line and found the correct part. It arrived in 3 days. said it might take 7. Husband and son dismantled the old plastic outer tub that had been slit by the screwdriver. Put the new one in, and filled the tub up with water to check for leaks. When the water got to the level of the fill line, it started leaking. We pumped the water out and stopped to wait for daylight. Next day we lifted the top of the machine and filled it again...the line that goes to the water level knob...was off. The woman found the leak and put the hose back on. We were semi worried when we read the reviews, but in the daylight, it really wasn't all that difficult to change out the broken tub.

Remove front cover and fastened new pumpin .hooked up hoses pretty easy. The part was easy to order and was shipped really fast. Thanks for your

Took access panel off of back saw that hose had pulled off of tub, thus the rinse water was just running on floor, re attached hose when the rinse cycle finished and the brake stopped the spin it jerked the hose off once again. It had a spring clamp holding it on, so I reinstalled it with a worm/screw clamp, no problems since. Ordered a new hose to have on hand in case. Jim

you need a ratchet with a socket extension 6" or better to remove the bolt then replace the agitator. The Job is extremely easy.

Simply watched your video, which was very well done, followed step by step and in about 20minutes the washer was successfully repaired. You have a great business model, the the part was easy to order, the shipping was prompt and the video was a plus Steven Hopkins

I pulled the back panel off, removed the belt and three 3/8 nuts holding the pump on.removed pump and installed new one, tests ok. It was easy for me I was a sears tech for two years on laundry equipment, nevertheless with your repair video it would be a breeze for a novice. Thanks for getting my part to me within two days. You guys are the greatest. - Sincerely, Mr Bob Byers

Simply replaced the pump: Disconnected 2 hoses, removed the pulley belt, swapped out the pump, replaced the hoses and belt, good to go !!

pulled off the old & pushed on the new

Remove 2 hoses and six bolts.replaced the belt and wash again.

Disconnect water, power and drain lines. Tip machine on side and remove drive belt. Release 2 clips retaining the top. A putty knife inserted here will do the job. Remove 2 screws holding the front panel and lift straight up to remove. Remove rear access panel and remove hose from the water pump. Be prepared to collect a bit of water when doing so. Disconnect the small hose attached to the drum at left rear. Using vise grips adjusted to grip them TIGHTLY, remove the 6 springs attaching the drum assembly to the machine base. Tip the machine on it,s side (unless you have an assistant) and remove the drum assembly slowly as you make sure the pulley at the bottom clears the bottom hole. With the drum resting upside down loosen but DO NOT REMOVE the 6 screws securing the dish shaped metal plate that holds the snubber in place. I used a 1/4" drive socket wrench with a short extension, a universal adaptor and a 5/16" socket. The snubber will spin freely can be easily removed when these screws are loosened enough. Clean the area thoroughly and then insert the new snubber. Be sure to center the new part carefully and tighten the 6 screws evenly and firmly. Return the drum to the machine and reinstall the 6 springs by again gripping them FIRMLY with vise grips and lifting them up until they slip into their positions. This is the hardest part of the job, take your time and be careful. I elected not to replace these with new ones as mine were not weak or broken. Connect the pump hose and small hose at the back of the drum. Attach the front panel and top. Replace the belt. Reconnect hoses and power cord. Leave small panel off the back until you run the machine and check for leaks. Good job.

opened top using screwdriver to release clips, used socket set to remove two screws holding front panel in place, removed water pump by removing 3 screws and 2 hose clamps, and replaced old pump that had a bad bearing with new water pump -
