Does not spin properly - Maytag Atlantis MAV6451 Top Load Washer

It needs to check by opening it. There is small switch inside the container. When tray is closed properly, that switch is ON and it spins the disk. Confirm tray is properly inserted and presses the micro switch ?

If your Maytag washing machine is agitating during the spin cycle, it could be due to a few different issues. Here are some possible causes:

1. Defective Transmission: The transmission in the washing machine is responsible for shifting the agitator and the drum between the spin and agitation cycles. If the transmission is defective, it may not be able to engage or disengage the agitator properly, causing it to spin during the spin cycle.
2. Worn Drive Belt: The drive belt connects the motor to the transmission and helps to control the speed and direction of the agitator and drum. If the belt is worn or damaged, it may not be able to properly control the agitator, causing it to spin during the spin cycle.
3. Malfunctioning Clutch: The clutch in the washing machine helps to regulate the spin and agitation cycles. If the clutch is not functioning properly, it may not be able to disengage the agitator during the spin cycle, causing it to spin along with the drum.
4. Faulty Timer: The timer controls the various cycles and functions of the washing machine, including the spin and agitation cycles. If the timer is faulty, it may not be able to properly sequence the cycles, causing the agitator to spin during the spin cycle.

It's best to have a professional technician inspect and diagnose the issue to determine the exact cause and the necessary repairs.

If the Spin button on your Aqualux 1200 Electrolux washing machine is not staying inside when pressed and comes out automatically after a few seconds, there could be a few possible causes:

Button malfunction: The button itself may be malfunctioning and not working properly. It could be a problem with the button's connection or the switch that it activates.

Control board issue: The control board is responsible for managing the functions of the washing machine. If it is malfunctioning, it may not be able to control the Spin button properly.

Motor or transmission issue: The motor and transmission are responsible for spinning the drum. If they are not working properly, the Spin button may not stay in.

Latch or door lock issue: If the latch or door lock is not working properly, it may not be able to keep the Spin button in position during the spin cycle.

(1) If the washer won't spin, the clutch assembly might be worn out. The clutch assembly makes the connection between the transmission and the inner tub. It is designed to allow the tub to get up to the proper spin speed gradually. As the clutch wears out it may prevent the tub from spinning. The clutch is not repairable, if it is loud or not working properly it will need to be replaced
(2) If the drive belt is faulty or if it isn't tight on the pulleys the washer won't spin properly and could cause the machine to stop.

I appreciate your post, Rachel Kovach!

From my understanding your Frigidaire frontload washer is not spinning the final spinning and the clothes are still wet. If you washer is overloaded it will not spin properly to release the water out of the clothes. Also, a small load will cause your washer to not spin properly. You should additionally check the drain hose to make sure it not kinked or twisted that could cause your improper draining. If all that checks properly it could be an issue with your drain pump, motor, and control panel. I would suggest consulting with a technician for proper diagnosis and repair. This will help avoid unnecessary part purchases. -Matt
