Hi all,
Hopefully somebody out there has some ideas on where I can find parts for a vintage Maytag Model YA702 (a/k/a Model A702) clothes washer. It had been working hard until a couple of years ago when it started to spit oil all over the floor. Called Maytag and they said keep using it until it does not go any more (what an answer). That problem I could deal with but then the inside fill hose broke and none of the regular supply stores could locate a replacement. Then recently the dial that controls the wash cycle must have been stripped by someone who used the washer and did not know about the push in & pull out function to start & stop. So....I was wondering where I could get 1) a schematic of the parts 2) a fill hose alternative and most importantly the gear component of the washer's dial. The dial is in like new shape as is most of the washer (except for the parts mentioned). Any help would be most appreciated since they don't build them like they used to.
