What Maytag Says to Check First
- 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
- 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.
