What Maytag Says to Check First
- Washer odor. Maytag links odor to skipped cleanings, wet loads left sitting and too much detergent or softener, and recommends regular washer cleaning and moving loads out promptly. Source: Maytag - How to repair a washing machine (top load)
- 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
