Needed to extend drain hose to reach drain
Ordered drain hose extender. It uses a rubber flange with hose clip to attach to washer's plastic hose. When tightened, the hose clip crushes the plastic hose and crimps it, causing a leak. My solution was to find a copper pipe flange that was the same diameter as the interior of the plastic hose to act as a bushing for the plastic hose. The hose clip could then be tightened without deforming the hose. Worked great with no leaks.

Washer hoses due for replacement
Replaced each hose. Did discover that either hose can be used for hot or cold water lines. No longer required to label hot and cold replacement hoses.

Non agitator pulsating action ceased
Ordered the parts and followed You Tube DYI clip. This 3YOMaytag top loading washer has had a motherboard replaced and now this. It all works fine for now, I cannot imagine what the appliance tech would have charged. Maytag is not what it used to be.

Washer lid locking latch that goes down into locking mechanism broke off inside the lock.
I used needle nose pliers to remove the broken piece of the latch from the lid lock and removed the round broken latch assembly from the lid by twisting counter clockwise and removing it from the round inset hole on the underside of the lid.
I then took the replacement latch assembly, inserted it flush in the hole and twisted it clockwise until it snapped into position. It took less than a minute to fix. The latch is very thin, made of plastic, so I bought two, to have an extra as a backup.

The wash plate hub teeth were worn out so there wasn’t any agitation to wash the clothes.
I removed the cap and then undid the bolt. The bolt was difficult to remove I guess because it was I there so long and is a critical part. Once I had the bolt out I used a strap to get under the plate to pry up. Once it was off I checked the drive hub kit and found that it didn’t need to be replaced. I pit the new wash plate in place and used a rubber mallet to help seat it once I knew the teeth were lined up. The bolt went back in easily and I replaced the cap!

the impellar mechanism wore out so stopped aggitating
Popped the cap , used a socket to unscrew the bolt (it was stripped so ended up having to cut off bolt) Took off old impellar and replaced, installed a new bolt, replaced Cap and it was fixed.

Replace drain hose
At first I had to position the washer so I could get access.. after having it positioned, I figured it out. Getting the clamp fastened, I was done.

Both outside door handles turned very beige
Everything worked perfectly---thanks to the suggestion of your call center agent. She suggested that since the replacement door handles were no longer available, I should consider repainting them--it worked like a charm. Please tell her she was a life saver. We rent that house in Fl and my returning tenants had complained about the discoloring refer handles. Thank you
