What a Maytag Washer Technician Deals With
Maytag top loaders move clothes with either an agitator or an impeller, and the drive shifts between agitation and full spin, which can make a normal clunking sound. Source: Maytag - How to repair a washing machine (top load)
Common Maytag Washer Problems
- Washer leaking. Maytag points first to loose inlet hose connections or missing hose washers, then to the drain hose and a backed-up household drain, and to clothes added mid-cycle that raise the water over the tub. Source: Maytag Product Help - Leaking Water Underneath - Washer
- 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

Local Notes for Sandy
Most washer calls in Sandy come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Oregon has no license issued specifically for appliance repair that we could confirm, but anyone installing or servicing liquefied petroleum (LP) gas appliances needs an LP gas fitter license from the Oregon State Fire Marshal. Source: Liquefied Petroleum Gas licensing (Oregon State Fire Marshal)
In Oregon, you can check a license with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board Contractor/License Search or report a problem to the Oregon Department of Justice, Consumer Protection.
