Default Washing machine

How do I take apart a Maytag old model? I can give you the model number, but I am old fashioned if it is broke you fix it...

Not sure what's wrong with it, but here are some youtube videos that might help. Also, Maytag is known for fixing their appliances. Might contact one of their stores near you.

My son fixed his using you tube videos. And if he can do it most anyone can. I love him, but he's not mechanically inclined.

Ok, if you don't have a voltmeter, best leave it to someone else. Some parts are pricey, so you won't be able to return them, if they are electrical. Next is the engineers make what should be so easy to take apart, so hard. Look this up on the net. Then it would help to have schematics. Most old machines might have a damaged one or none at all. I know you want to save a buck. Just be careful or it might cost more than a repair man. I helped a guy one time on a piece of equipment. He had bought a board, a ignitor and a main high limit switch. It cost him like $350 to buy it all. Nothing would make the equipment run. It took me less than 30 seconds to remove the door and re-set a manual switch. All the parts he replaced were good. Knowledge is what you pay for, but it is nice when you can do it on your own. Plus I never told his wife what was wrong. I promised him she would never hear it from me. Lol

If it's the bearings, there are several great youtube videos and it's not difficult if you have the tools needed and space. There is a specific tool needed for the job that runs around $20 -$30 if you stay away from the Maytag name. Total cost for mine with parts was under $100. If you have a friend to help it will speed the process. Also, I needed a jack and piece of wood to free the drum.

Default Why bother?

You can buy a NEW Maytag washing machine for about $400 - If there was only a way you knew how to make $400 really fast without too much effort, you could buy a new washer.... hmmmmm.... let me think... any ideas... nope, me neither.

As much as Ed is attempting to be humorous, but failing, he does have a point. Just a couple parts add up quick, and probably not worth doing as something else may go wrong. And if it's the electric control or motor, it's scrap. These things have a life of perhaps 6 to 9 yrs. I might fix something at 6 yrs, and have, depending on what broke. If a just a belt or something simple? Yes replace.

Post 8 mentioned bearings/bushings. That's almost a complete disassembly and a couple hours. I wouldn't bother unless the machine was less than 5yrs.

TailHooked is amusing at post 7 and his point is valid. If you don't know what's wrong ...

osd has best advice at post 2. One of the KC gals had a clogged up vent hose. 5 min. Even though barter was on the table, I said just buy lunch. Still see her.

Try one last thing. Turn a shoebox on it's side, tall side up. Cut a door frame out of the boxtop and put it back on making sure to bend it back so it stays ajar. Before bed one night adhere to it a decorative sign that reads SOCKS WITHOUT PARTNERS GROUP. Maybe it is just a bunch of lost socks looking for others just like themselves. Worth a try.

Been a lot of good advice on here. I used to work on Maytags part time in college many years ago. The older Maytag machines may be worth salvaging. They were USA made in Newton Iowa. When they sold out, the began producing them overseas and it was mostly junk.

I've used E replacement parts as well and they have very knowledgeable associates and good videos.

Good luck.

My machine was 10 years old when I did the repair. I've no reason to believe it will not last another 10 years. I can not say it was the best $100 bucks I ever spent, but it's up there. Yeah, it took a couple hours - time that would have been spent on the computer or watching TV. At a $300 savings (more like a $500 in my case because my machine has lots of bells and whistles), a couple hours works out to be $150 an hour. I've seen 'working girls' who didn't make that kind of money.
