MAT15MNAWW0 Maytag Washer - Instructions

plires took off the two hoses , on clip the two snap clips . pulled out the old pump . put the new one in cliped in the snap clips in & hook the hoses back up

Removed the two spring clamps from hoses; removed hoses from pump. Removed spring clips holding pump to motor. Had to pry pump off of motor shaft due to rust on shaft end. Sandpapered rust off of shaft and then lubed same with oil and new pump slid easily onto motor shaft. Re-snapped spring clips to hold pump onto motor and then reinstalled hoses and their spring clamps. Whala, end of story, job well done.

Unplugged the washer. Pulled it away from the wall far enough so it would be stable tilted back against the wall. That way I didn't have to disconnect any hoses or lay the machine down.

I used a ViceGrips to squeeze the hose clamps and then pulled the hoses off. Getting the pliers in the right position in the tight space was the hardest part of this whole job, and that still wasn't particularly hard. I have medium sized hands (for a man).

I flipped open the retainer clips with my fingers. Pulled the pump off and slid the new one on. It helped to make sure first that the flat side of the motor shaft was roughly facing the same way as the slot in the pump.

I reattached the hoses and popped the retaining clips back on. Held my breath and ran the washer. No more leak!

Incidentally, before I discovered PartSelect I called Whirlpool service. I asked if they could have the tech show up with the part. They said "No." I'd have to pay the fee for a diagnostic visit and then the tech could order parts and return to install them. They said there would be no service charge for the return visit.

Several years ago I believed this story when I called for a dryer repair. However, when a second technician returned with the part I had told the dispatcher the first time around was needed, he came up with some excuse why there had to be a supplemental service charge. I challenged it on my credit card and eventually got it removed, but it was a hassle.

Thank you PartSelect! And thanks to others who posted their experiences and gave me confidence to fix it myself.

Video was very helpful. Repair was easy. Remove and replace with just hand tools. The hardest part was moving the washer around to tilt it back. Service was great. I picked regular ground shipping and parts showed up the next day.

First, we took the pump off and found that it was leaking. Ordered the part on line. The part arrived in four days as scheduled. The small pump was easy to replace with screwdriver and pliars.

Removed water supply hoses and took drain hose out of drain. Unplugged electrical cord. Turned washer over to see and reach pump easily. Flipped clips holding water pump. Moved hose clamps back on inlet and outlet hoses. Wiggled hoses off pump. Placed new pump and flipped clips back in place. Wiggled hoses back onto pump ports and replaced clamps to hold. Turned washer upright and reinstalled. Using channel lock pliers to move hose clamps was the hardest part.

I unplugged the washer, put a towel down, leaned it back and held it up with one hand while undoing the clamps with plyers. Pulled the two clamps off, pulled the pump, put the new pump on, reattached the clamps. Most of this with one hand while the other held the washer at an angle.

1) Disassembled the lid
2) Took the front Panel off (the old water pump was in the bottom left hand corner in plain site).
3) Used flat head screw driver to gentle pry the top and bottom water pump fasterners.
4) Used pliers to remove top hose camp. Note this is where I discovered why everyone says to put the washer on it back. Water came rushing out. Luckily no damage to the motor.
5) Used pliers to remove the bottom hose clamp.
6) Put everything back together Total time <30 minutes.

Unfortunately, the water is still not completely draining. I am now looking at the hoses for obstructions. Any other suggestions?
Thanks

Luckily this washer was in the garage and was being made ready to replace an old broken washer. Being able to lay the washer on its side made the job much easier than if it was upright in the laundry closet.

Removal of the old pump was simply a matter of releasing the two clamps holding the input and output hoses and removing the two spring clips holding the pump in place on the motor shaft.

The new pump install required a reversal of the above and took about 3 minutes. It was a very easy and successful repair.

Simple. Removed two hose clamps, pulled off the hoses, removed the clips that held the pump in place and removed the old pump and then simply did the same thing in reverse to put the new pump in. It was easy and the pump was an exact match.

Had a coworker hold washer tillted back, pop both clips that hold pump in place,with pliers remove clamps from hoses.
install hoses on new pump and install pump on motor with the clips.
It took about 12 minutes to do the whole thing.
It was very easy and fast.

I pulled out the washer, laid it on it's back, pulled off the two hoses using pliers for the clamps, pulled back two clips, pulled off the pump from the shaft, put the new pump on the shaft, and did the reverse of the above. It was a simple operation and made even more satisfying by the prompt delivery of the part, within 2 days. Thank you for that, and I will use your services in the future if needed.

After unplugging power and disconnecting water drain hose, I pulled the washer out aprox four feet from the wall and leaned it back against the wall. I then used a lamp at the end of an ext cord to light up below the washer where the water pump was attached and it was easy to remove and replace! I carefully replaced the washer in its original location and reconnected power and drain hose. The job was complete in 15 minutes! Wow!

Flip washer on its back, Undo/flip the clips/clamps off the water pump, remove the clamps from the hose and remove hoses from water pump, slide the pump off the direct drive, line up the shaft/drive with the new water pump and slide into position and return the clamps to secure water pump in place and reattach water hoses and clamp to the water pump. There should be two hoses going to the water pump, flip washer back upright and run a cycle to make sure the problem has been fixed

Replace front legs. Very easy fix.
