A North Canton customer called us about their Maytag washer making noise and not spinning clothes properly. The clothes were still wet when the cycle finished. Our diagnosis revealed a stripped hub in the spin basket.
The Problem
The machine was making a noise and not spinning the clothes properly. They were still wet when the cycle was done.
Diagnosis
The hub in the spin basket had stripped. This component connects the spin basket to the drive system, and when it fails, the basket can’t rotate properly to extract water from clothes during the spin cycle.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: W10528947 — spin basket hub
- Work performed: Replaced the stripped hub and calibrated the machine
- Result: The washer is operating correctly
Is It Worth Repairing?
This Maytag top-load washer is from their mid-range line and typically offers good longevity. A stripped hub is a common wear issue that’s cost-effective to repair on these models. The MVWX600BW0 is worth maintaining when the major components like the motor and transmission are still solid.
Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers
- Avoid overloading the washer, which puts extra stress on the hub and drive components
- Balance loads properly to prevent excessive vibration during the spin cycle
- Clean the lint filter regularly to maintain proper water flow and drainage
