I have a Maytag Atlantis washer that runs fine until the spin cycle. Once it hits the spin cycle, it gets very loud, like it's off balance. When we get the clothes out, they're still soaking.

There can be several causes, the drum off balance would cause the shavings during spin cycle , balance could be one of the the balancing mechanism failed and not running could be the balance sensor shutting down the spin cycle. You should start by checking the balance shocks .

Thanks for choosing FixYa and welcome to the site. As you already know, that is the reason that it is doing it. You need to check the bottom legs of the washer and make sure none are damaged. Also, I would advise you to get a level tool. By doing this, you will know where the balance is off at. You can add wood slits under the legs to balance them off. Once it is level, you should be good to go.

May be the bearing in your direct drive shaft. If washer is a belt drive, the belt could be frayed

Washer may be out of balance, Move closes around in washer and restart

clean motor rollers(belt may be slipping)

if you can make it rock by hand or by jumping the legs are not adjusted proper.it can also rock if the floor is soft... then get thick plywood under the washer ....11/2 inch should be good.you should try to balance the load put heavy things in first

Maytag Atlantis washer goes thruout washing cycle,but dosen't simse or spin....

Sounds like you have a bad timer. If after wiggling the time knob it keeps going and runs fine, it is most likely the timer.

Your maytag is really an amana and the bearings are bad. Yes it does cost a lot. If i were you i would buy another washer. Get a whirlpool. (whirlpool now owns maytag)

The belt is slipping and needs replaced.
