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
What Maytag Says to Check First
- 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
- 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
