Know Your Maytag Washer
How Maytag Washers Are Built
A liquid-filled balance ring at the top of the tub shifts to offset uneven loads so the basket stays steady at higher spin speeds. Source: Maytag Product Help - Water Heard in Washer, but not Seen - Balance Ring Information
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
Maytag Washer Symptoms and First Checks
- Washer not draining or not spinning. Maytag says to confirm the lid or door is fully shut and the load is balanced, then check for oversudsing, a kinked or clogged drain hose, standpipe height and, on some front loaders, a clogged drain pump filter. Source: Maytag Product Help - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
- Off balance, shaking or walking. Maytag says to spread the load evenly, confirm the shipping bolts were removed, and level the washer so all four feet sit firmly on the floor. Source: Maytag Product Help - Washer is Vibrating, Walking or Moving

What Manhattan Owners Should Know
New York City Department of Environmental Protection (Catskill/Delaware and Croton supplies), which supplies Manhattan, reports hardness of 16-90 mg/L as CaCO3, averaging 25 mg/L (about 1 grain per gallon; soft). Hard water leaves scale on washer inlet screens and heating parts and calls for the right detergent dose, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.

New York State has no appliance repair license; home improvement contractor licensing is set locally, required in New York City and in Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester, Putnam and Rockland counties. Source: NY Attorney General: Contractor tip card
In New York, you can report a problem to the New York State Office of the Attorney General, Bureau of Consumer Frauds and Protection.
