Turn off/unplug the washer then verify if the filling stops. The water inlet valve (part number 35-2374N) is stuck in the open position if water continues to overflow even with the machine turned off; replace it. The problem is with the water level pressure switch (part number 21001554) stuck in the empty position or not able to switch to full position and cause the overflow; replace the water inlet valve assembly.

Note: This advice is provided with the assumption that the washer is Maytag PAV2200 where the problem is posted. Otherwise, indicate the exact model number.

having the same problem found in side a small black hose with a small hole in it but have no idea what this hose is for. may be it is connected to some water sensor.

Hi



Thanks for using FixYa. The issue is due to worn auger dogs and/or agitator bolt is loose which is required to be tightened. If the dogs are required to be replaced you can order online from the link. Also, you’ll need to check the water inlet valve, water level control and water pressure sensor with an OHM Meter or a Volt Meter and replace whichever has gone bad. To check these parts, please see this: Water Inlet Valve and other parts. Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.

Thanks

Make sure the feet are level and that the plastic caps on the feet are in place. Sometimes they are left off during installation.

that rubbing noise is coming from either the rollers which are onthe bottom of the tub or the tensioner pulley. if you repair try to buy dryer rebuild kit as a kit its alot cheaper difference of paying 20-29 for the kit and 40-50 for seperate parts

Asker's Testimonial " This should give me an ida of what to look for once I open er up " -

there is a rubber hose in the back of your machine that has a hole in it. Mines did the same thing. I removed the back took of the hose just yesterday and now I have to find a dealer that sales the hose and replace it.

might b motor fault or jammed gearbox.when motor turns one way it drains and spins, when it turns other way it agitates,might b jamming when it turns for agitate.try looking under unit and remove belt, then turn main drive pulley by hand clockwise then anticlock to see if it is jamming. turn power off first dont want any accidents.please reply to see how u go.good luck

if its an old unit it is most likely your transmission time to get a new one before it stops agitating at all.

first get 2 phone books, put 1 under front right foot and put one under front left foot. that will allow u to see the belt running between the 3 pulleys.turn unit to cycle, select low water fill and start cycle. when it is filled to level lie down on floor and u will b able to see belt spinning. please dont put your hand near moving belt do not want any accidents.why do u think your belt is slipping? is it because your clothes are coming out damp?please reply 4 more help if u need it.

If you remove the dispensor in the center of the agitator you will see a bolt near the bottom this has came loose or fallen out. The dispensor will pull off but it might be tight. If the bolt is tight the spline has probally worn out from being loose in that case you will need to replace both sections.

The problem could be due to few things.

1.There is a seal underneath the nut that holds the air bell housing on.

2.A faulty agitator component,there is a plastic hub that connects the
agitator to the motor and this can become worn.

3.Finally it can be the transmission,this is most likely your problem.
