Maytag model 6000

I have had the model 6000 for 7 years. At one point it cleaned clothes very well. Now I need to wash the clothes 2 or 3 times to get them clean. no I am not overpacking the machine. I do have dogs so there is lots of dog here on things. Does anyone have any advice what might be the problem without tossing out the unit

Maytag top loading washing machine is leaving small black spots on clothes. The washing machine is only 2 years old
Black spots on clothes from a washing machine can be caused by several issues:
  1. Detergent buildup: Clean the detergent dispenser to remove any buildup.
  2. Hard water deposits: Install a water softener to remove minerals that can leave spots on clothes.
  3. Lint buildup: Clean the lint filter to prevent lint buildup.
  4. Poor-quality detergent: Switch to a high-quality detergent.
  5. Agitator problems: Check the agitator for any damage or issues.
If the issue persists, it is recommended to have a professional technician diagnose and repair the problem as it may require technical skills and specialized tools.

Why is my maytag 2000 washing machine leaking from underneath when it is only 2-1/2 years old
You need to establish the area that you have seen the water pooling and trace it back if possible.Make sure you disconnect the machine from the power point before you conduct these checks. Is the water clean, dirty or oil contaminated. if you can't determine exactly where the leak is coming from try placing a chux cloth around a hose with a cable tie before a wash then check it on the completion of the cycle - make sure the chux cloth does not effect the operation of the machine.

My Maytag Bravo dryer adds extra minutes to cycles. If I set it for normal or bulky it will run for some time and when I check to see if it's done it still has over an hour left on it, more than the...
Your dryer has a moisture sensor, if it senses that the clothes aren't dry enough it will extend the cycle. A couple easy things to check:

1. Be sure the spin cycle on your washing machine is working properly. If the clothes are too wet when you add them to the dryer your dryer will need to add more time to get the clothes dry

2. Be sure your lint filter is cleaned after each load, and have your dryer exhaust vent cleaned- it could be clogged.

Is there any kind of recall on a Maytay front loading washer, model #MAH6500AWW? I am having problems with mildew in the rubber part and terrible smelling water in the bottom.
The cleaning process for your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer, for example, requires some time and patience. Over time, your washing machine will need to be cleaned. It can develop offensive odors through multiple wash cycles. This makes the washing machine less effective at cleaning the clothes you put into it. Maytag offers some sound advice for cleaning your front-loading washing machine.

  • Pour 2/3 cup of liquid chlorine bleach into the bleach compartment of the dispenser drawer of your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer.

  • 2

    Run your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer on the "Clean Washer" setting. Press "Start" to start the cycle.

  • 3

    Leave the door open once the cycle is complete to allow the inside of your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer to ventilate and air dry.

  • 4

    Look closely at the gray seal of the Maytag Neptune front-loading washer's door opening. This seal can have a buildup of debris or detergent residue.

  • 5

    Spray the seal with an all-purpose appliance cleaner and scrub away any debris or residue with a cloth or scrubbing pad. Dry with a clean cloth.

  • 6

    Remove the soap dispenser drawer. Press the release lever and lift it out to clean.

  • 7

    Take out the inserts and rinse them and the drawer thoroughly.

  • 8

    Wash with a mild soap and cloth to remove any residue. Dry thoroughly before replacing.


    • ALWAYS LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN WHEN NOT IN USE! This prevents the mold and mildew from forming once you get it cleaned.

    Maytag Top Loader Thumps When In Spin Cycle
    My guess is that one of the three counterweights have separated from their support. Probably rusted away.
    36 years is quite a feat. Today's machines would be lucky to 1/3 of that life.
    Sounds like its time to go shopping.

    WASHER MAGIC is the revolutionary product specifically formulated to safely and effectively clean the family washing machine. Top loading machine use whole bottle. Front loading use 1/2 bottle. You may rub Washer Magic on with a rag to eliminate odors.

    Why Use WASHER MAGIC? Every time you wash your clothes, hard water and detergents causes lime scale and rust to build up inside the tub, pump and hoses. This build-up reduces the ability of your washing machine to perform. Mineral build-up acts as an abrasive increasing the wear on your clothes. The result: your clothes are not as clean as they could be and wear out sooner.

    If you are unhappy with the way your clothes comes out of the wash, then WASHER MAGIC may be the solution you have been looking for. Only WASHER MAGIC can restore the family washing machine to the way it performed when it was new. Use once a month for optimal washer performance and to keep control of trouble causing build-up.

    I have a Duet tumblefresh 4.0cuft W10284544A. The inlet pump was leaking so I fixed that and now the washer won't co into the spin after the rinse cycle. The washer drains completely after the wash cycle but when the rinse stops the light on the front goes back to wash and it starts beeping and won't stop until you either start the wash or shut off the unit
