MHW8200FC0 Maytag Washer - Instructions

We turned the washer on its side, took off the bottom, and replaced the pump. Washer still would not work, so we called the company, to find the restart, after 30 minutes on the phone and still no answer, we wiggled the wiring, the restart was on the top, rear, left side of the washer, a small ground, we unplugged it, and then replugged it, it started right up, and no problem, washer has worked great since!

Take off top of washer and the flowmeter is in the back lefthand corner on the top of the washer. Replaced the water level switch on the top righthand of the machine also. Got about 150. 00 Total invested w/service call from local tech. F-20 has not came back yet. I hoped it fixed it washer is only 3 yrs. Old. -Gd

I hit spin and drain cycle. Disconnect the power cord from the wall. Remove the back cover. Stuck a bowl under the filter/ strainer. Unscrewed the filter/strainer let the rest of the water drain. Disconnect the pump /drain hose. Disconnect the wire harness from pump and removed the pump bolts. Replaced the pump reassembled.

First, the repair manual is under the top cover. From the manual, I found that my problem E1 F0 (I think) was one of two possible issues, the drain pump or level switch. I bought both parts and replaced them and the issue is no more. The repair went very easy. You remove the rear cover and top. The pump is located in the bottom bay of the machine. The only issue I had was that the machine had the drawer unit, which blocked the access panel under the machine and made installation and removal a little more difficult. The best way is to tilt the machine forward to reach the bolts, a small ratchet set works nicely. The level switch is on the right side, toward the rear. This part slides out, and the wires are keyed, so they only go in one way.

So I was unable to get my model number so I took the hinge off the washer and was able to order the part. Before removing the hinge I used a marker and marked the hinge location on the washer. Once I got the part I removed the T15 screws on the inside part of the door and separate the pieces. I was able to remove the white tube for all 4 of the pins and put them on the hinge. I installed the hinge an then i put the front door pieces back together again while it was laying on the floor. I though I put it in wrong but I was correct. Once i had the hinge on the door and the door reassembled, I was able to attached the hinge to the washer. The hinge comes off the washer by pushing up on it and to reinstall you push down. I tighten the 4 T25 screws using the marks on the washer and the door is alligned correctly. I am able to close the washer door with one finger instead of my whole hand.

I thought it was the pump and ordered one. After I ordered it I decided to look up online how to get the error code. Itsaid to push any three buttons (except off and on)
In a row in succession twice. So one two three one two three. Walla! It worked. The codes popped up on the panel. I looked the codes up online. Itsaid the codes meant the hot and cold water were not filling at the same rate and the washing machine by default shut the system down and has only the pump run for 8 minutes.
The remedy - turn the dial to a new setting. It worked!! Once I turned the dial all the lights came on and the machine was back to normal. Unfortunately when I called part select a few hours after I order the part there was no answer and they shipped the part express the next day. They are letting me return it but only partial payment of what I paid. About one third of my cost and I had to pay return shipping of $13.00.

Two people to screwdrivers, stretching the spring out and around and that’s the last part to go on

Found helpful video on YouTube
Unplugged washer and moved out from the wall leaving the drain hose intact
Used vacuum pump to suck out water from front of washer (inserted hose inside front door gasket)
Removed back cover
Checked filter on old pump(clean on buttons, screws or missing jewelry)
Positioned light and mirror inside to locate screws attaching pump
Unplugged small wire as shown on video
Used wrench and socket to remove bolt head screws
Used adjustable wrench to release clamp on hose connector to the old pump
Pulled out old pump wiped up small water drips
Installed the new pump ordered and received from partselect
Hardest part was inserting the far back screws and reversing the righty tightly mindset…
P.S. washer is up and running great!

Removed the back panel removed the drain pump installed new one

I pulled out the filter and it was not pugged so I ordered a new pump and installed it, easy to do. That took care of the fault code and it was repaired. Being who I am I took apart the old pump and found that the pump had a build up around the armature of the pump motor. I cleaned it up and reinstalled it and the old pump worked fine. Now I have a spear pump for the next it fails. Easy repair that took less than 15 minuets to fix.
Happy to deal with Parts Select they have great shipping.

Took the top off. Identified the parts needed. Ordered the parts. Installed the parts.

Took sometime to figure out the problem. A little difficult to replace part partly due to the drain pump with filter’s location in the washer. Mine is on its lower right rear. It’s reachable and yet difficult. Good luck!

I took the machine top off, then removed the control panel, removed old wire ring clamps. Removed door, removed inner clamp, water inlet tube, and bellows. Lubed up the new bellows with food grade silicone. Replaced the water inlet, inner clamp, door, outer spring clamp, reassembled the washer body and control panel and then ate a pizza.

replace the door lock with the parts i ordered

Removed back panel. Remove 4 8mm sockets on pump assembly. Replace with new pump. Only difficult because of limited clearance. But I'm huge.
