How Maytag Washers Are Built
The washer will only run and spin when the lid or door switch senses it is fully closed, and the lid or door locks at the start of a cycle. Source: Maytag Product Help - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
Top load HE models use auto-sensing, spinning slowly to estimate the load before adding water in stages, so the water level can look lower than owners expect. Source: Maytag Product Help - Auto Sensing in a Top Load HE Washer
Common Maytag Washer Problems
- Washer not filling. Maytag says to make sure both faucets are fully open, the inlet hoses are not kinked, and the inlet screens on the water valve are not clogged. Source: Maytag Product Help - Checking the Fill Hoses if the Washer is not Filling
