We serviced a Maytag A 8640 washer in North Canton that wouldn’t drain. Our diagnosis revealed a failed pump that needed replacement along with the drive belt.

The customer reported that their washer will not drain. Water was remaining in the tub after wash cycles completed.

Inspection of the wash machine revealed a bad pump. The pump had failed and was unable to remove water from the tub during the drain cycle.

Is It Worth Repairing?

This is one of the best wash machines that’s been made. These Maytag washers were built to last decades with proper maintenance. Fix it and hang onto it as long as you can — you won’t find this level of construction quality in today’s appliances.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers

• Check and clean the drain pump filter monthly to prevent clogs that can damage the pump
• Use HE detergent in proper amounts — excess suds can strain the pump motor
• Inspect the drive belt annually for cracking or stretching, especially on older models
