    Looking to start a new collection. Need help. How?

    I'd love to find a maytag. I'd actually love to find anything right now! Lol. Anyone got a machine they don't want anymore. To donate ;) I don't have a truck or any transportation at this point. But I'm 28 strong and very handy. My grandma had Jenn-air appliances that were from the late 70s...

    Maytag MTW5600 tub holes rusting, what to do?

    Yea I've never used vinegar in this washer. I use to use it all the time in my FL kenmore elite until the spider broke in two. I didn't know the Ajax could make it worse. Thanks for that! I just wiped it all down once. It seems that maybe 25% of the holes are starting to rust. The washer is...

    Maytag MTW5600 tub holes rusting, what to do?

    Hi all. Any info on this is welcome :) my top load maytags tub is starting to rust around the holes. Read online that this would eventually happen. What causes this? I cleaned the tub up with Ajax but I'm sure the rust will return. My question is if I do buy a new tub, how long should it last...

    Looking to start a new collection. Need help. How?

    Do you have to be an upgraded member to see the classifieds on this site? A free machine. How much better can it get! I am very handy and already have a thrill/rush when I think of my first find.

    Looking to start a new collection. Need help. How?

    Hi there. Yes I am in the little town of lompoc. I've been lookin through Craigslist but haven't seen anything yet. I don't know if at this point I'd be willing to pay for shipping. Is it an outrageous amount to have a washer or dryer shipped? Also is it pretty easy to get vintage washers to...

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    Hi all. I replaced the water level switch today with the new update one. But for the life of me I couldn't get the old hose off the outer tub, the part that sticks out. I kept pulling sometimes hard until it came loose. Can the outer tub part that the tube goes into ever break off or is it...

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    I also had a question. When the washer is washing or in operation I notice the house lights dim depending on what it's doing. Like when it stops draining and engages tos pin they dim for a second. Now I had a Electrolux ewfls70J and I don't remember it doing this. Also my breaker for the washer...

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    That's kind of what I thought. I set it for a small load and walked away to do something. When I filled it the next day to reproduce the sound on a small load it made the grinding noise. When I set it to a medium load an no clothes it didn't make the noise.

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    Hi thanks for that info. I took a chance on this machine because 1 I am impatient and 2 because I have another baby on the way and I was tired of waiting hours for my FL to do one wash. Went IMO a maytag dealer and they had this machine or two maytag Atlantis. Now while I liked the Atlantis I...

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    Hi. It doesn't bug me. But what failed inside the tranny to make this start happening. I saw on sears parts direct that the tranny has a substitution. What improvements if any are made, or why do they change part numbers. I have the old tranny part number. Guess what I'm getting at is if it will...

    Hi all. I will try and catch that grind noise when it happens, if it happens. Have done a few loads of laundry and no grind noise. But I bet if I do a small load empty ill get the noise. Also the spin drain is buggin me. Someone said there is a kit to fix it inside the tranny. Is this a tranny...

    Maytag MTW5600tq2 tranny problems?

    Hi all. I just bought a "reconditioned" maytag washer. Had a front loader and couldn't stand the 1 long or more wash cycles. Now maytag said they put a new tranny in but I'm questioning that. Because some of the time when agitating it will make this like squeak squeak squeak noise. that's the...
