LAT5004AAW Replacing the Maytag Water Pump 202203
Posted by: | CommentsOK, I did it. I turned the machine on it’s side and loosed the water pump from the machine’s base by removing 3 5/16″ screws. After removing the two hoses attached with hose clamps, the pump slipped right out and the new one went in just as easily. I replaced the new belts that I ordered and the machine runs perfectly. And to think I was ready to go buy a new machine.

Posted by: | CommentsThanks for everyone’s help. This is an awesome service and got me looking in the right direction. It was the vent for sure, ran it twice all the way through and not one drop of water! I guess in 17 years of running perfect I should do some maintenance.

wm2277hs help with washer
Posted by: | CommentsHere’s what the manual has to say regarding the LE code:
The connector (3-pin, male, white) in the MOTOR
HARNESS is not connected to the connector
(3-pin, female, white) of STATOR ASSEMBLY.
• The electric contact between the connectors
(3-pin, male, white) in the MOTOR HARNESS
and 4-pin, female, white connector in the MAIN PWB
ASSEMBLY is bad or unstable.
• The MOTOR HARNESS between the STATOR
ASSEMBLY and MAIN PWB ASSEMBLY is cut (open
circuited).
• The hall sensor is out of order/defective
If you have OHmed out the wire harness from the main PCB to the motor, and have checked the stator on the motor for signs of broken or loose wiring, then you can assume the PCB is bad.

FWX223LBS0 Top Load Washer Drain Issue
Posted by: | CommentsRemove the front panel and also the hose going into the small electric pump you’ll find right in front. If something is blocking the flow, it’s likely there. Other than that, the outlet from the tub may be gunked up. In this case, fill the washer on the lowest level with very hot water, add a cup of powdered dishwasher detergent and let it circulate a few minutes, then set the timer to drain.
tip: Never use drain cleaner in a washer..it will ruin the seals.

This washer is just over a year old. It started turning off in the middle of the load. The display would also go out. After waiting about 15-20 minutes you could start the washer again.

DLE9577 New Drum, Rollers Too?
Posted by: | CommentsMission complete & Mama’s happy again – just stopped back to say, THANKS
I did not make clear, this was a DIY job
I did not spend the extra $80 and replace the rollers but did oil them & the tensioner – good tip
Based on all the lint build-up that was cleaned from the inside of the unit & vent, I set a clean schedule every 3 years. WOW, what a fire hazzard.
Thanks again, Boys
