8 years ago I purchased this set from a dentist and his young wife. Bought it (with the bases) for $350. Took it home and disassembled it thinking it could be the pump. ( wasn’t sure) it was only 1 1/2 years old and after spending over $300 on a service tech, put it up for sale. Took it apart, found the pump and upon opening it just a tiny bit of water came out while the tub still had water in it! Took the filter out and along with it came a small training bra!! lol. Yanked it out and of course had water everywhere! Here it is 8 years later and it’s malfunctioning. Sounds like the pump is trying to pump water out, but possibly blocked. At 76 don’t think I can bend down that far without getting up again. Got son in law coming in two days, but forgot the steps to get to that pump. Knew the screws were there but forgot about the clips. Anyway, thanks for putting this out there. Great refresher and for those DIYers , it really is easy!! Thanks again! Good vid!

I just had my filter cleaned out on my Maytag of less than 1 yr, so it was under warranty. The repairman said, Be careful because next time it will not be under warranty. They only allow one repair like this since it's not the fault of the machine. He said the next time it will cost $349!! Why, I asked. This young'un said, This is a very dirty job! The guy knows absolutely nothing about dirty jobs! He didn't get dirty whatsoever! Crazy!!!

Fixed my washer with this video, thanks!

Absolutely a piss poor design. Most “Normal” washers have the plug in the front for convenience especially for people with small laundry rooms where there’s no room for this without completely removing a stackable washer dryer set it. This is a disastrous design

We have a similar model maytag. It was displaying a f9 E1 code which is the code for clogged drainage system. I followed your info and cleaned the drain trap but it was mostly clean. This led me to inspect the drain hose itself which was pretty severely clogged with gunk. Gross... I sprayed the gunk out of the drain hose. That was fix for us. This info got us on the right path to fix it. Also the whole washer area in clean now that we cleaned up behind the machines. Thanks so much for the guide. 👍

Boy, not much to a washer for the price 😂 Thanks for sharing, I saw some newer machines have an access on the front. Nice of them to put a drain inside a sealed unit...

Thank you for walking me through this process! Just a note tho, i know that vinegar will damage the rubber hoses, and some other parts which will eventually cause the machine to leak, especially on front loaders. So maybe at the 4:03 mark in the video you might want to reconsider using the vinegar to clean the o-ring and opt for something else to help you clean up your washer. I found out about the vinegar problem after I had added some to several loads of puppy laundry. Not long after, my machine sprung a leak. When I researched the leak I found it is a very common problem. Thanks again tho!

How do you get out objects? Mine are under the drum and I cannot get to it

If you would have covered that o-ring with plumber's silicone lubricant or as a last resort cooking oil, you would not have any problems screwing that part back. It would also make it easier the next time you remove it because it will be lubricated and preserved (if you used plumber's silicone lubricant).
