Hey folks! I've been absent for a while, but recently came across a Maytag DE606 that I couldn't pass up. It was listed on Facebook Marketplace, and the listing said it had been in use up until a few days prior, but that now the button wouldn't stay in. For just $20, I had to go grab it.

Anyone happen to know the logic behind Maytag's revisions of the "Chime Actuator" in the dryers (DE/DG 806, DE/DG 808, others?) over the years? The overall bracket arrangement seems to have been designed around a simple bent wire with a screw & nut. Later on, a molded flexible plastic part...

A while back I came across a posting on Craigslist that caught my eye... I don't need any more projects, but classic Maytags have been thin on the ground since the pandemic, so this posting stood out. I checked again last week - and still there at three weeks since the original posting, I...

Off-hand, does anyone know of a machine that had a standalone physical bell with a solenoid striker for the end-of-cycle chime? I'm looking for a part for a project, but can't seem to find any readily available. There were the Maytag 806 & 808 dryers of course, but those parts are forever...

A couple quick questions about the non-thermostatic Maytag washing machine water inlet valves: 1) Does anyone know what changed between the 2-3177 / 23177 / 203177 valve, the 2-14377 valve, and the 2-5613 / 25613 / 205613 vale? All three appear visually identical in outside appearance. The...

Hey folks, quick question- For a modern dishwasher in a new installation, is there any particular reason why draining via the port in a disposal is preferable? Typical benefits listed are that food waste gets an additional grinding, and that plumbing/installation is simpler because the disposal...

Hey folks, we're looking to replace our disposal as part of a light kitchen refresh, and have read a lot of good reviews about the InSinkErator Evolution Compact. However, there appear to be two versions of it - one older, and one newer. The specs are nearly identical, save for the change...

A bit of a different question... Is anyone aware of any washers/dryers made for the North America markets, that used brushless DC motors in a conventional belt-drive application? I'm seeing that Samsung seems to like them, for example the "DC93-00316A" washer and "DC31-00184C" dryer motors...

Here are a pair of interesting Maytag publications I picked up last year. They are the dealer price guides, which show the listings of available parts, the suggested customer prices, package quantities if available in bundles, part numbers for substitutions, etc. Maytag calls them a...
