      Is that your only complaint?? You obviously knew at the time you bought it that it doesn't have a push/pull selector knob.

      same but i think i figure it out. turn it on and unplug for 10 sec, plug it in then turn it on, press and hold start for 1 sec let go and it'll lock then unlock spin and sit there for like another min then it will lock the lid and start the cycle or atleast mine does hope that helps if you haven't replaced it or figured it out already.

    It is awful! It shouldn’t be this difficult to start the washer. I had my last Maytag for over 25 years. I wanted a newer washer so I purchased another Maytag…Mistake. Not the same product of yester year.

    This is the absolute worst washer I’ve EVER owned. I hold the start button until all the lights come on then I walk away and it turns off without starting the load. It happens all the time on different settings. Don’t waste your money get a washer with an easy start button.

      There’s something about having to turn the dial to get it to start, but even that doesn’t work sometimes. I don’t know what to do to get it to start without turning every knob eight times and even unplugging and replugging it in🤦‍♀️

      Agree. My mother bought this washer and paid a lot for the see-through lid feature, but it is difficult for her to start and I'm always having to go help her with it. It's a big regret for both of us.

      Yes!!! I’ve owned mine for four months. Mine has yet to finish one load w/o dying. I’ve tried it 4 times now and it has never completed a cycle. It is always out of balance in spin cycle and shuts down. They replaced the shock absorbers and nothing changed. It’s crap!!!

    No, the problem here is the resume after pause doesn't work. Pressing 3.0001 seconds does a reSTART that no one would ever want from pause.

    • @dn32585
      @dn32585 Před 3 měsíci

      I found everything to be on a delay so it seems its not going to work but it will. even the resume seems delayed the pause works right away though. you press and hold for one sec like to start the load then wait itll shoot water out without locking the lid then stop for a second then itll lock and resume the cycle atleast mine does.

  • @dorothyhickenbottom5057
    @dorothyhickenbottom5057 Před 3 měsíci +2

    Wow I have not liked mine since I got it new about a year ago. I bought a large commercial Maytag but when you put a large load in, it gets off centered and the machine starts clanking and banging. I can only put small loads in so that it doesn't do that. Most of the time when I run it through a cycle it does not drain all the water out of the machine; therefore the clothes are still wet.

    This is a Whirlpool product and no matter which Whirlpool washer you buy they spend more time thinking about washing than washing. That is why I buy GE. I hear all these oh don't by a GE washer you will be sorry. Well guess what they treat us right and wash a load of clothes in a reasonable time and do a fine job, so I'll buy another when this one dies.

      i thought the same thing it just seem to be delayed in the start for some reason. when you press the button to start it mine would make the noise to lock then unlock and seemed to do nothing. then i would shut it off and try again dont do that. turn it on unplug it for 10 seconds plug it in set it to the cycle you want press and hold the start button for one sec let it go itll do the same lock and unlock then spin once or twice then seem to sit there just let it sit itll lock like a minute later then do the cycle. after i figure that out havent had a problem since it does a great job at washing once you figure it out.

      i had the same problem i found if you turn it on unplug it for 10 seconds, then when you plug it back in press and hold for one second. itll lock and unlock spin once or twice just wait a few like another min and it will lock and do the cycle dont know why it just doesnt start when you press it. spent an hour trying to do a clean cycle when i first got it the day before yesterday. now it works but you still have to give it a min after you press the botton for it to actually start.
