    Ready or Not Help Requested - Maytag Washer LA412 & Dryer DE412

    Ready or Not - Help Requested - Update On the pair that I picked up, the washer is a 412 - basic model - but it will suffice for my needs. It is running now fairly smoothly but not a nice as the A606. I switched out the belts and that seem to have smoothed things out - although the belts I...

    Ready or Not Help Requested - Maytag Washer LA412 & Dryer DE412

    When I picked up the pair - both were in the house so hopefully they were not frozen up. I'm going to swap out the belts per suggestions from Malcolm and Bruce. It's still winter here - so I'll be testing indoors as much as possible. I'll let you all know a little later how this goes. Thanks...

    Ready or Not Help Requested - Maytag Washer LA412 & Dryer DE412

    Hmm - so the A606 parts won't work on the 412? Most of the time the washers and dryers are not hooked up so you can't check operation until you bring it home. I called on the machines and the guy had only had them two months and was looking to get rid of them. In the picture they are on...

    Maytag A606 Washer Leaking Oil

    Maytag A606 Washer Leaking Oil It's a pretty fair leak - so it may be coming to the end of its life. Do they not get fixed because people go out to buy a new one? I checked out the thread to overhaul the transmission which is beyond my skill level but is it worth having replaced?

    Maytag A606 Washer Leaking Oil

    I started to notice an oil leak under my washer a few weeks ago (at first I thought it was water - wasn't worried) but later determined it was oil. It's still operating but I've stopped using until I can figure out what going on. Its probably a seal or the transmission. I came to this website...
