Hi All, I would really appreciate some advise on this. I have a Maytag Atlantis MAV7600AWW washer which has the following symptoms:
i) In Wash mode (Normal/Colors), the Agitator sometimes agitates. On occasions when it is not agitating, the machine still makes sounds (guessing belt and motor are running)
ii) When it is Draining, the agitator is agitating (is this normal?). Also, the drum spins for about a minute and then stops (the agitation and draining continues).
iii) In Spin mode, it does the same thing as when it is Draining. So, the agitator is agitating. The drum spins for about a minute and then stops (the agitation and draining continues).
I'm looking for some advise on the following..
1) Is this an issue with the timer or transmission? I've been told it is likely the transmission.
2) I've looked and not been able to find a transmission (35-6615?) at a reasonable price. It shows discontinued from what i can tell. Anyone know of a source?
3) Is this worth fixing or is it time for a new washer?
Thanks for reading this far and appreciate any advise.
