# Maytag Washer Repair

Full-size top-load and front-load washers from a brand owned by Whirlpool and built on shared platforms.

## Maytag washers, specifically.

Maytag sells top-load and front-load washers, and some of its top-loaders carry a Pet Pro filter inside the agitator and a built-in water faucet. Maytag's help center covers each display code, and a good share of them concern the lid lock, the size of the load and the drain hose rather than a failed part.

## What is particular to Maytag.

Maytag's washer help is split into top-load models, some with Pet Pro and a built-in faucet, and front-load models. A top-loader's lid lock and agitator and a front-loader's door lock and pump are serviced differently, so the type is the first thing to confirm.

### The Pet Pro filter sits in the agitator

On Pet Pro models the hair filter has to be installed in the agitator during the cycle to catch anything, and it works best with the Pet Pro option turned on. It also traps lint and debris, so a full filter is worth checking when loads come out linty.

### Weight on the lid keeps it locked

A Maytag top-loader that senses objects on its lid will not unlock and shows dU. A laundry basket parked on top is enough, so clearing the lid comes before any lock repair.

### Small items can reach the pump

Maytag warns that small items can get caught in the pump or between the basket and the tub and slow the drain. Mesh bags for socks and emptied pockets prevent a share of drain visits.

### A paused front-loader winds down slowly

After a pause or a cancel, a Maytag front-loader can take 20 to 30 minutes to stop spinning and drain, and it shows Int the whole time. Waiting it out is part of the routine, not a sign of trouble.

Parts

Common Maytag washer parts such as lid locks, pumps, inlet valves and control boards are regularly stocked. Feature-specific pieces such as a Pet Pro filter or faucet parts can take longer to get.

Repair or replace

Maytag lid lock, drain and fill repairs are almost always worth doing on a sound machine. Replacement is worth comparing when the tub bearings or the transmission of an older top-loader have failed.

## Questions about Maytag washers.

### Does my Maytag Pet Pro filter have to be in place for every load?

It can be left out, but then it catches no hair. Maytag recommends keeping it installed because it also filters lint, debris and human hair.

### How should I clean the Pet Pro filter on my Maytag?

Clean it right after the cycle, while the hair is still damp. Peel the hair and lint off, brush away the rest, and rinse it with the washer's faucet; do not remove the cap on the bottom.

### Why doesn't the faucet on my Maytag work the way the manual shows?

Maytag notes that faucet use varies by model number: some models use a Water Faucet setting on the knob, others a separate faucet button. Check which one your model has, and book a visit if neither dispenses water.
