Spent our Sunday taking apart our Cabrio per your prior videos, and ran both diagnostic tests and a calibration cycle. Nothing was clogging drain/pump.

  1. Do you have any other suggestions as to why the machine won’t drain properly? It’s almost like clockwork that that clothes never spin out on a regular wash cycle. I usually have to hit drain and spin, once or twice before the clothes are spun out enough for the dryer. The pump seems to be trying to do it’s job, and sometimes it work, it’s just very inconsistent. Sometimes there’s 6″ of water in the bottom at the end of cycle, other times the clothes are just real wet.

    1. When we removed the tub from the unit, we could still hear water rolling around inside the -is that normal?
  2. There are only two springs on the right-hand side of the tub–should there be four springs around it? We found no springs on the floor or inside the washer.

  3. And finally, we found a black powdery substance, which appeared to be from the belt, which looks like it came really close to coming off the wheel–the plastic that covers that belt looks like it had a rut melted into it where the belt rubbed up against it.

Appreciate any assistance you can provide to help us finish the job – your videos are very helpful.

Thanks,

I have a Maytag 4000 Series Washer model# MHWE450WW01. This started about 2 weeks ago. I had an F71 error code. When I hit the power button I’d just get 3 beeps, no display. Found a Youtube video from an appliance tech who said F71 was a motor control board. Replaced the motor control board and everything seems fine until I ran a whole cycle and had wet clothes at the end. Everything seems fine except I get no high speed spin. Thought I might have got a bad board so I contacted partsimple.com and they sent me another board. That didn’t change a thing except to confirm the board was ok. I then replaced the control board. That didn’t change anything.

Here’s where I’m at now: In diagnostics it will spin at full speed with the C08 diagnostic test which tells me I don’t have a mechanical problem like a slipping belt, motor etc. During a normal wash cycle it will not spin at high speed with or without clothes in it. The door locks fine, door lock indicator is lit and door won’t open. It fills to the normal level and drains fine. Spin light comes on but the drum rotates at wash speed. It acts like a load balance problem. The drum rotates one way, stops, rotates the other, then the drain pump comes on and it tries to spin but then stops again, rotates one way then the other like it’s trying to balance the load. I can’t locate the balance sensor (if there is one). Any help would be appreciated.

Samsung top load washer – each cycle will work in the customer manually moves setting – but if left on it’s own it doesn’t go into a spin cycle and gives an E3 error code. MODEL WA456DRHDWR/AA
SERIAL Y01X5AEC401444H. After doing research we saw that the culprit could be the hall sensor (dc31-00154a), this did not solve our problem. At this point we are guessing that it could be the state or control board, but are not very confident in this diagnosis.

I have a Crosley washer. I have searched and searched and cannot find the model number. By appearance, I believe it is a CAW9244XQ4 . When you push the start button, nothing happens.

Here is the timeline of the failure:
– for about 1 week, when you pushed the start button, the light would come on for sensing and it would do nothing. If you held the start button to cancel, and hit start again, it would eventually finish the sensing and wash the load.
– for about 2 weeks, when you pushed the start button, the light would come on for sensing but it would not run. No matter if you cancelled the load or unplugged it, it would never continue on and run.
– currently, nothing happens when you hit the start button. No lights come on.

I saw this video on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RSR1T8IZK28.
When I followed the key sequence, the washer went into diagnostics mode. I could select the same setting in the video, but it did not solve my problem.

How do I get instructions to all the testing and functions in the diagnostics mode?

I noticed this because I cleaned behind my washer and dryer and there was a small area that looked like water had accumulated there before. Not sure if that’s a problem or not? Cleaned it up and put a small towel there to see if I can catch anymore when it happens. Is something broken or leaking inside?

Hi,
I am working on a g.e front load. Maybe about 3 years old.
I believe the drain pump is bad, but the problem is I never worked on this particular model of ge.
Normal I would unscrew the 3 screws in the back of the lid and then pop of the top cover….
But this model does not have any screws for you to remove.
There must he a special way for me to take of the top panel ??so I can disassemble the machine for repairs.
Any information helps 🙂

My Maytag washer will not agitate. It fills, drains, and spins fine. When it comes to the agitate part of the cycle, it makes a low humming noise ( I believe this is the same noise as it normally makes, only minus the sounds of swishing water). After a while, a squealing noise starts, and I can smell burning rubber. The noise is just like a loose belt in a car. The loss of agitation was also progressive, from a ‘weak’ wash, to very minimal movement of the agitator, to complete failure to move, along with the other symptoms.

I checked the belts and they are fine, and there is no oil or liquid leaking. With the belt off, the large central pulley underneath is hard to turn counter-clockwise, and moderately hard to turn clockwise. There is no grinding, rumbling, or clinking noises. The tensioner moves freely.

I might guess that perhaps the transmission has become clogged or the grease has become sticky, or something has wound itself around the parts somewhere?

*This is an edited repeat of an earlier question, but with more details.

Any help is appreciated.

I have a GE SPACEMAKER stackable washer/dryer. Customer complained that the washer knob broke off and that the washer is not working. When I arrived I noticed the knob from the washer side was off the potentiometer aperture handle (timer knob) resting on the washer. I tested the dryer and the dryer appeared to be working fine. I tried to start the washer to test it by turning the timer knob (which had fell off of the control panel frame bracket) and pressing start button. Not only did the washer not show any sign of life by not starting, but I tried turning the knob on the timer without the knob attached and I could not hear any “click” coming from inside the timer indicating that it was advancing to the next stage of the washing cycle.
I removed the control panel cover and noticed the timer slid out of place in its socket when it was supposed to be securely fastened to the front panel. The knob was turning but the timer was not clicking as it advanced. I tried to unplug the connector OF THE TIMER from the wires but coud not notice any discrepencies visually. Should the wires have been checked ?? continuity ? voltage ? Could I have a bad timer ? If the dryer works fine and the power is getting to the dryer and stopping when it gets to the washer could the timer be preventing this ?
Timer part # 131758600 (WRITTEN ON TIMER ITSELF)

The Maytag 2000 washer is tearing clothes when a full load is being washed. I observed a towel getting stuck between the tub and the white plastic (bellows?) Is this the right part to replace and can you give suggestions on how to replace this part. The white plastic band that circles the tub inside is well worn and looks ruff. I believe this is the bad part. Does the washer come apart from the front or the top. There is a dryer stacked on top of the dryer.

I have paperwork that indicates the resistance value should be 97 ohms, at the molex connector unplugged from the inverter. The led was blinking 4 times for a mode shifter error. I installed another mode shifter off of a machine that worked but had bad bearings. It had a reading of 63 ohms. The unit still won’t agitate, and I still have the error code. I swapped the inverter out with a known good board with no change. Do you any ideas why the mode shifter would work on one and not the other? What is the margin of error, for the resistance value, of the mode shifter coil?

Maytag top load. Wont power up. Has F6 E2 code. Communication error between UI and ACU. Has 120v to Main board. Light on main board is flashing signifying 5VDC present. Tech sheet says preform key activation and encoder test (passed) and check for voltage to main board. All good. I m thinking UI is bad. What do you think?

I am trying to release the transmission from the unit to further look at possible tub not spinning problems. I have seen where you have to release the internal screw from at the bottom of the dispenser that helps to hold the transmission shaft. The screw head is stripped; and I am assuming that someone else has been into the unit. Is there a way of getting the screw off; or the plastic agitator shaft completely out of the way so I can continue at removing the transmission/basket drive from the bottom.

Thanks… Fred in Lubbock. TX

This model has a metal hub on the shaft with six screws. When pulling up on the shaft it seems to bottom out. When you look at top of shaft there is a rubber seal and steel ring which doesn’t allow it to come out when we pull up on inner tub. The metal hub will not separate from the basket. When we put removal tool on to pry out it didn’t budge and are afraid of breaking it. Every video we watch shows guys just picking inner tub out or removing with a removal tool. Neither one works for us. Goal is to get inner tub out so we can remove debris etc out from between inner and outer tub. Is this tub just being stubborn or do we need to remove something from the bottom side?
