    Thanks. Yes, the refrigerator and freezer work just fine. I puled it out from the wall, took off the back sheet metal panel and reinstalled it. The fan works just fine and the hum is much quieter now.

I have a maytag dryer that sometimes when I hit the start button will start and run for only a few minutes and stop and wont start again for a while and does a humming noise when it does star why?

Sounds like the motor is going into thermal overload (Getting hot) it may be caused by the motor itself, or could be overloaded by bearings or fan etc

I have a panasonic convection/microwave. Last night, after I cleaned it, using oven cleaner on a sponge, it made a loud humming noise after running on microwave for about 10 sec. It does not make the noise...

Since the unit makes the noise on Microwave but not convection it is a problem it he Microwave Circuit. Probably in either the rectifier of bad mag, one of them shorted. Just looked at the date you posted this, Im sure you have fixed or replaced this by now

New Maytag dryer model mgdc400vw makes loud humming noise

Weird, try making sure it is level, and make sure your vent pipe aint too long. Tip the cabinet back while running if the noise goes away the damn metal vent pipe is too dang long.

Maytag Performa Bottom Freezer refrigerator making weird noises

This can be due to low supply voltage, causing the compressor thermal overload to trip out. Therefore when this happens the compressor gets hot and it keeps trying to start but fails. It can also be a faulty starter relay, which is located in the conncetion box of the compressor and is very simple to replace.
