Disconnect and remove the machine to give access.
Drain the machine by holding the outlet hose low over a bowl.
You can probably tip the machine backwards onto 2 crates of food or similar heavy object, so it is almost laying down.
The pump should now be visible, and a pipe-wrench used to remove the pipe clamp and slide it back over the rubber pipe.
Then remove the pipe.
Have an old towel handy to mop up water.
Clean out the pump pipe and pump. Maybe even removing the pump.
Connect again - and compress the pipe clamp again before sliding it back. Make sure it looks right and water-tight before standing it upright again and replacing & re-connecting.
Connect power last.

Drum rotating unevenly, squeaking

If the drum moves up/down side/side without the outer drum moving, bearings gone, replace. To check for clothing, which I doubt, remove front seal outer section, look around outer part, to bottom you probably find clip, prise apart, front back, not side ways, refit sideways

Try using fill hose screens to avoid coins in your water pump.

likely a rubber gasket slipped off the groove.... try taking it apart and slipping the gasket back on.

heavy loads have more force during the spin cycle.

Problem with Maytag MAH2400 AWW

As for the user whose machine will not drain and sounds as though a chain is clanking, the solution is probably a coin caught in the drain pump. I just had the same problem. Access the pump from the bottom of the machine. 4 screws hold the mounting bracket on undo those, the electrical connection and two hose to the pump. Undo three screws holding impeller to motor and coin can fall out. Examine for damage if it is not too tore up, put back together. Keep in mind that when you unclamp the hoses that water will come out.

Unlisted error code on MAH-24 Maytag front-loading washer

Did you connect the wires back to the pump. The neutral runs through the pump winding and to the door interlock. Check the connections on the drain pump and the harness in general. Sounds like a broken connection somewhere.
