Maytag doesn't seem to rinse.

I have a two year old Maytag SAV515DEWW that will go through the entire cycle on the dial but when you open the top at the end there is still water and suds in the machine (smell of bleach too if used). I can get the washer to drain by manually turning it around to "spin". It will spin and drain but I don't think it is rinsing at all.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try this. Run the machine set for full load, short wash. DO NOT put clothes or detergeants in the tub. Water only. Let the machine agitate for 1-2 minutes. Gently advance the timer manually untill it locks into spin. Let the machine continue to spin until it stops on its' own and begins to refill. At this point lift the lid and see if there is any access water in the tub.

Most of the time this condition is caused by a blackage in the drain line. Make sure the drain hose is not kinked in any way.

Also, there are times when I've had to removes socks and other objects from the tub to pump hose. It only take a 10% block to cause the machine to retain water.

I have a Maytag Legacy SAV515 series top loader. Will fill with water, but will continue to agitate thru to end of wash without a spin, fill, rinse and final spin.

This machine has a 'Fill and Agitate' mode (no spin). So many programs on it! You may have a faulty timer, but due to the cost of those items, I suggest you get professional diagnostic advice. Try a power disconnect overnight. Spin the control dial one revolution and then reconnect power.

Most likely pressure sensing switch. What is your model #? If your model has this part # W10292584 then it is the problem.

I had this problem with my old Maytag (top-load) - it was the injector - an assembly mounted on the top left of the machine - a $10 fix (about $36 for the entire assembly) and the problem disappeared!_906.jpg

Maytag Dishwasher Will Not Rinse

You are probably not getting enough water into the machine. Replace water inlet valve (solenoid valve) and this should solve the problem.

Belt squeek during rinse cycle

Mine the same concern, I took it apart and found the thermo fuse in the motor had a bad terminal. Maytag parts man said you must get a new motor even though the fuse has a part # on it and is easy to change. I made temporary repairs until I find a fuse from a used parts machine. Scott

Maytag Atlantis washing machine

Yes there is a small motor just like in most wall clocks the gears strip or the gear bushing slips and refuses to advance the dial.
you have to replace the whole timer unless you know MacGyver microsurgery

Maytag Neptune Top Load Washer - Rinse Cycle won't run - Machine says nF

Sounds like the 'Wash water' is not pumping out fully,You need to drain the water by lowering the empty hose into a bowl & check the pump for a blockage ( if the pump is an 'electric one' check that it is working). TURN POWER OFF FIRST
