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.

Washer will not advance to the last spin cycle, how to repair?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Pat, thank you for your question. We would recommend testing the lid switch first, and then the actuator. If the unit is not latching the unit will not go into the final spin. Also, the actuator switches the unit from agitation to spin and may not be working properly. If those parts are ok, the issue would be with the timer which is the electronic timing board that processes the unit through the cycles. Please see the parts linked below. I hope this helps.

I did the method to get errors on this machine the senor light and the wash light come on together and flash then the done light flashes. By youtube that is suppose to be the error . It starts filling up then starts draining. If you recalibrate it by the you tube method sometimes you can trick it in to washing clothes but not often. I can not find a book online to show me those error codes. My receipt says 2016 so it may not be worth fixing. serial number c54721032 or either the 5 is a s

Starts to fill for a minute or two and quits
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Gay, thank you for the question. The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the washing machine. If the water inlet valve is defective, the washer may fill slowly or not fill at all. The water inlet valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. First, check the water pressure to determine that it is adequate. If the water pressure is adequate, replace the water inlet valve, part number PS12349267. We hope this solves your problem!

Noise on bottom of Washer louder as time went on. 1 1/2 years

  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers, Socket set
Well, first investigated and found loose nut on drive clutch. First take off the two screws with nut drive then cover off using a screwdriver blade to snap off the cover. Then socket ratchet to take off the nut on drive clutch. take off belt by slowly rotating the drive gear. two screws that hold the electronics to the upper drive clutch and put aside, so you can snap off the cover for drive clutch on upper part with screwdriver and off the parts come and install whole unit back as took it apart. Line up the new upper clutch so that is position as was before. (Using parts diagram helps a lot as www. partsselect.com has for you or Maytag.com.) Then put the electronic part board back on and the gear and nut. Make sure it is tight by several attempts to make sure it's snugged up good and then slowly roll belt back on the pulley and motor drive. Put your cover guard back on with two screws and done.

Noise, grinding sounds. Wash tub stopped turning but motor and cycles kept functioning. Process of elimination, must be the clutch assembly.
