Maytag washing machine

My washing machine fills up with water then it does nothing but make a buzzing noise. It doesnt drain or anything but the motor seems to be working the belts and they are fine so was wondering what it may be?

When the washer fills up, first thing that actuates is the diaphragm switch under the control header. This is directly connected into the timer. The diaphragm switch starts the timer motor listed on the diagram as TM. Check the timer motor. If its working you can see something rotating in a little window on the motor. The motor operates all the internal cam switches.

Machine filled with water then just began beeping. Never started to wash the clothes. When turned off and then on again, it makes a buzzing noise and nothing happens.

If your buzzing noise stops after a few seconds, it could be the motor failing to start. If it sounds like a signal buzzer, it could be indicating the lid open, or a failed lid switch.

When u start it it just make a buzzing noise but doesnt fill with water

Hi, if there's no water at all, make these checks:
Is there water getting to the machine?
Is the water-volume selector switch set properly and are the control panel buttons pressed in all the way?
If you have a Maytag® washer, is the fuse (if there is one) in the control panel at the lid-switch bracket blown?
Is there a faint buzzing or humming noise coming from the water-inlet valve? (The water-inlet valve is the device on the washing machine that the fill hoses are attached to.) If you can't hear anything, the water-inlet valve may not be getting any power. If you can hear some noise and there's water present, you may need to completely replace the water-inlet valve.

I started a load of wash and the water stopped flowing into the machine. It will spin, so it isn't anything electrical. The water will not fill it up?

Maytag washing machine won't drain or agitate

Check the drain line for kinks or obstructions. Check the pump. Remove the hoses from the pump and use a flashlight to look into the suction port. Make sure nothing is clogging the pump (like a stray piece of clothing) and check the pump impeller. Make sure there are no blades missing/broken and that the impeller spins freely. If there are any broken/missing blades or if you can't get the impeller to spin freely, the pump is defective. Hopefully it's just a clogged drain line, pump, or jammed impeller. Remember to disconnect the machine from electrical source before attempting any repair. Sorry for your trouble and I hope this helped. Best wishes.

Me Estate washing machine, when started fills to specified water level then, it makes a buzzing noise then the buzz quits and nothing happens. Machine won't agitate or drain, just buzz then buzz quits.

sounds like you have a problem with your water supply to washer. the buzzing noise sounds like it's the valve opening to receive water but nothing going in. check supply hoses and water taps

    Fills with water than nothing!

    Most likely it's the lid switch, part number 22003804.
    Remove the back of the console to gain access.
