Maytag Ensignia MAV4758AWW Top Load Washer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

it could be you lelft something in the pocket of your pant that fell out an didnt drain out an si in the bottom of washer tub you have to remove the agitator an the basket if you dont know how call a techican ok are try an take a flashlight an see if you see any thing stuck in the bottom are the side of the basket ok

something in pump prob a coin bra wire but check pump

Could be the gears/transmission for the agitate cycle are jammed, the motor then freezers, creates an overload and the breaker pops.

Yes, the motor should have a little play in it. What does it do when it gets to the spin cycle?

Possible that the water level sensor is faulty or there is fault in the main program controller unit. You need to check on the output to the valve and the pressure sensor to cut off the supply and start the motor.

Try leveling the washer... If the washer is level, then don't wrap the clothes around the agitator...drop the clothes straight in, on top of each other evenly around the agitator. The Ensignia washer has a Dual action agitator... That means the clothes roll over them selves, instead of moving side to side, as with a traditional agitator. wrapping the clothes around the agitator will cause the load to be un balanced and then cause the "banging" noise... this should take care of the problem...

Check your belts and also check the drain hose to be sure it is pumping the water out at a good pace. Hope this helped.

This advise is for Kenmore Elite and Whirlpool Duet front loader washers and dryers with a Control Lock problem.

This may or may not be an indication of a serious problem. In the majority of the cases, this is a simple operator error. Nearly all these model appliances have some sort of Control Lock feature on the front panel now. This is a designed safety feature that is used to prevent small children from manipulating the controls. The controls can be easily locked or unlocked by pressing and holding the following button on the front panel:

Whirlpool Duet Washer - Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for 3 seconds.

Whirlpool Duet Dryer - Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for 3 seconds.

Kenmore Elite Washer - Press and hold the DRAIN/SPIN button for 3 seconds.

Kenmore Elite Dryer - Press and hold the AUTO DRY LEVEL button for 3 seconds.

These instructions may not be all inclusive for all Kenmore and Whirlpool models, but they are the most common. Chances are, if you have a Control Lock feature, the instructions will be printed on the front panel adjacent to the button that is required to lock or unlock the controls.

NOTE: These instructions may also work for newer model Maytag, Hotpoint, Admiral and Fridgidaire model front loaders as well. Refer to your owner's manual or front panel for instructions pertaining to your sepcific model.

If the Control Lock feature will not lock or unlock the appliance, unplugging the unit for AT LEAST 30 minutes is recommended in order to reset the main control board. In many cases this is all that is required to correct momentary glitches.

you need to level the unit and then lock the jamb-nuts between the leveling legs and the bottom of the units base structure,use a level and check the top,then level the unit as best as possible,per the floor grade,then tighten the jamb nuts to keep them there

Sounds as though you may have something lodged in your pump. The pump runs all the time on this model, just backwards during the agitation portion. Tip your washer back and slip your belt off the pulleys and turn them by hand to see if you can identify the culprit. the pump should be the pulley all the way in the back right hand corner. Look between the pully and the bottom of the pump to see if you see a silver wrinkle stamped piece of steel (press sleeve) that is hitting the pulley if so you will need to replace the pump as it has slid out of it's housing. You can also romove the access cover on the back of the machine(where drain hose connects) to see the pump, I have found in the past that often something will travel down the hose from the outer tub and get stuck inside the pump causing constatn noise.
Good luck to you on this! Feel free to ask if you have any other questions!

Ball bearings are worned out. Repalce the bearings with the same type no. or equiv.

Inspect the bearing holding shaft also. If it ir worn circularly, replace the shaft also. You have to replace the wter seal also.

The problem is the water inlet valve is either clogged up or has failed. There is a video at www.appliancehelponline.com/servicemanual.html this will walk you thru testing this it's a different model but testing procedure is the same. Try cleaning out the screens before disassembling and check the screens in the hoses.

pop off the end caps on the control panel and remove the screws ,,,then pull the panel slightly forward and flip it back ih has plastic hinges on top so be careful,,,, next unplug your lid switch,,,then remove the two clips holding the back to the base with a screwdriver,,, then open the lid reach inside the inner rim and pull the back towards you at about a 45degree angle and then lift the base off the frame ,,,look inside and pay attention how the base comes off the frame and it will be easier to put back together!

your tranny linkage is either stuck ! worn out! of just jammed from running out of balance its located in the bottom on the machine on the transmission

water inlet valve is no good, ( what the hoses are connected to ) . hope this helps....

Please keep in mind, I'm attempting to diagnose your unit without being there and with very little information.
From my experience, I would think you have a bad belt. They get stretched over time and start squealing in the spin cycle. If you don't change it, it will make a noise in every cycle until it comes off.
NOTE.
When changing belt. Check and be sure the pulleys have no play on their shafts. They also go bad. It's better to fix it all now than one to have to repair four or five times this year. Good luck!
Please rate solution

Drive belt is failing and should be replaced. check by looking underneath the washer

Heating element may be burned out. Try alternate settings to see if it works in other temp settings.

This maybe a motor going bad because over heating or to hot. Switch inside of motor wareing out or burnt points on switch. See a apppliance repairman to check this out. Hope this may help.

most washers do. If it is excessive make sure it is level in both direction.
