Have a mould smell on all the clothes after washing and drying , Is there a way to clean this up?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Douglas, thank you for contacting us. Scrubbing your washer tub is a great way to deep-clean your washing machine and ensure there’s no soap or detergent scum left behind. Pour a quart of white vinegar into the washer tub with 1 cup of baking soda, and use a stiff nylon brush to scrub the interior. Then run a wash cycle on the hottest temperature and heaviest laundry load settings. You will also need to clean the gasket. Apply vinegar to a paper towel and wipe down the inside of your gasket to kill any buildup that might be causing bad smells. We hope this information is helpful.

Washer is shaking s lot...what can be replace to stop it to shake?
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Luis, thank you for reaching out. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest that you make sure the load is balanced inside the tub and that the unit is balanced. If that is not causing the issue, then you may need to check the suspension rods, part number PS11703287, as they are most likely faulty and may need to be replaced. We hope this helps!

Lid Lock light blinking, machine will not start
324 of 404 people found this instruction helpful.
  • David from Los Alamos, NM
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
A detailed Service Technician Service Manual is hidden inside the machine on the front panel. It is hidden by the bleach dispenser input. It gives a list of fault codes and instructions for calibration after repair, resetting fault codes, and a manual test mode for stepping the machine through each mode on command. The Tachometer faile d which would not let the machine come up to maximum spin speed. The tachometer is part of the solenoid actuator that shifts the transmission. It is not specifically called out in the manual. Any failure causes the lid lock light to blink which gives the appearance of a lid lock failure

Defective lid latch - Cabrio Washer
97 of 124 people found this instruction helpful.
  • William from Wakefield, RI
  • Very Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
The instructions that came with the part were worthless. Essentially, unplug, put in new part, plug it back in. I spent a considerable amount of time on the internet and finally found a video showing how to open the top. Unlike other models, it is held down by clamps in the back rather than clips in the front. Once finding this inform ation the installation was simple. Remove the clamps and the back of the console, slide the top forward and lift, remove and replace the lock and reassemble. You don't even have to remove the hoses.

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.
