    Whirlpool vs Maytag Part Numbers

    I think I need a seal and bearing kit to install the lightly used Hi-Torque 25-6615 transmission into my Maytag Atlantis washer. The Maytag part number for the kit is 21001868. I'm finding some sellers also listing a Whirlpool number, W10219156. Are these the same parts, just with two...

    Changing Trans on Maytag Atlantis

    I'm hoping I can just unbolt the tub from the old trans, and bolt it to the new trans with no serious problems. Anyone know for sure?

    Changing Trans on Maytag Atlantis

    I recently found a 35-6615 Hi Torque trans for my Maytag Atlantis, MAV6200AWW washer. What else do I need to get in order to switch this trans out? Also, any tips on doing this job?

    Funny Dryer Story

    When I lived in the big city, I was friends with a married couple who were pinching pennies. They had 2 little girls, and lots of laundry. The wife would buy these 220VAC stacked washer/dryer combos on the local CL in order to get parts for her own stacked washer dryer. It seems a lot of...

    Unfortunately most of the "experts" advising those in power are college educated morons who have no common sense or real world experience.

    The Maytag Neptune TL: The Washer that Caused Maytag’s Death

    In regards to Maytag's demise: When you take Gub'mint regulations imposed by bureaucrats who know nothing about real world problems, and combine it with with Maytag Inc. bean counters, designing machines by cutting costs, you get DEATH. Olde Maytag, it was good to know ye, and I treasure my 23...

    Just found a post on Reddit about a Whirlpool washer EXPLODING

    Engineers in all industries have been put on a tight leash by the bean counters.

    Almost brand new Whirlpool washer with bad control board

    These days consumers seem to just want appliances that look good. If it goes out of whack in a year or two or three, most people just get a new one of a different brand, and chalk it up to bad luck.

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    How can I determine my year of production? And how can I tell if I have a High Torque trans?

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    Thanks for that write up WasherGuy. I really appreciate your knowledge. I'll listen carefully on the next wash and try to describe the noises I hear. I see used transmissions on ebay, but I'm a bit reluctant to take a chance on one.

    OldSchool, do you have a part number for the trans rebuild kit?

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    Thanks OldSchool. Can you describe the process to replace the trans center gear? My machine is noisy in the wash mode--though I'm not sure what normal is for this washer. How did you know the center gear was bad?

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    3 washes under my belt with this Maytag, and it is even better than I had hoped for. With the electronic Maytag that I had before this one, even tho I selected "Extra Rinse" everything came out smelling like the detergent. With this oldie-but-goodie Maytag everything comes out really fresh...

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    Combo52, I'm still not entirely sure why it was vibrating so badly. Thanks. I love saving old machines. I first spotted this washer a good year & 1/2 ago, sitting outside collecting leaves and rain water. I spun the dial and realized it had a timer instead of a darn electronic gizmo-switch...

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    I love that I saved this washer from the scrapper, and investing only about $40+ bucks, I have a Maytag what lets me fill the tub with as much water as I want.

    Maytag Atlantis Out of Balance Spin

    I just ran the first load through and both spins were vibration free! Lets hope it stays that way. I think the snubber ring had been replaced recently by someone, and in hooking up the suspension springs, they didn't hook them up correctly. I hooked them up so the end of the bottom of the...
