Oh my goodness! I just fixed my washer by following this video. I’m 68 and a grey-haired old lady with limited vision but I did it!!!!!! I figured I had nothing to lose by trying ( I’m big on trying new things) and if I failed I’d call a repairman. Thank you SOOOOOOO much! You just saved me $$$$$$!

Came across your video after my wife called me sad and disappointed and said the Maytag washer wasn't powering on. After watching your video pulled it apart and did just like you said and now my wife is happy again. Thank you very much.😊

Fixed it with your help! THANK YOU very much. We had barely any corrosion on those contacts, but scrubbed them clean and voila! A tip for all your viewers - Maytag's instruction booklet says to keep the lid OPEN after washing until the basket is dry. We never did that, until now of course. That dampness probably contributed to the corrosion.

@@DuctTapeMechanic But now I keep getting the FL code. Which wasn't ever happening before. My washer will fill up, then stop, flash FL and drain, then shut off. I tried running the diagnostics, but from the code it gave me, it says the washer load is too much, even though there aren't that much clothes inside. I'm stumped. From what I've been seeing, I guess it means I need a water inlet valve replacement, even though that hasn't been an issue until all this happened. Any advice on what the actual issue might be?

Excellent video. Exactly my machines problem!

The interface board/panel is one part. The number should be on a sticker on the inside of the panel

Are the tub/gear case seals for these available yet?

More then likely the corrosion is somewhere else on the interface board sometimes they have to be taken all the way apart and cleaned. Is the machine throwing any codes? If the control board is flashing green light it is most likely ok.
