YMHWE301YW00 Maytag Washer - Instructions

Searched internet for diagnosis. Ran diagnostic test using the diagnostic manual from whirlpool. The error code was F29. Replaced door latch but problem was not solved. Then order the Motor Control Unit. Removed old control unit through the top by removing the top washer cover and numbering harness positions with painter's tape. Install the new Control Unit and ran diagnostic procedure. The problem was solved. The washer is working fine.

Well first off the part is different then the orignal so it does not fit correctly. I removed the old bellow and its cicular spring clamps. On the new bellow there is not enough lip on the rubber for hte clamps to be put back on and hold the bellow in place so it still leaks out the door. if the part was a match it would work but since the part number was changed and the design was changed it now does not fit correctly. INstructions did not come withthe part so had to find them online.

Took less than 5 minutes to replace, So Happy;-)

Turn off water and power. Pull top off first, then bottom front kick plate. Take all the screws out of the soap tray. Disconnect the front panel from the controller, then the upper front panel comes off, but be careful with it as it is plastic tabbed. Pull upper metal support brace off. Detach the door lock BEFORE you pull the door off (two torx screws). Take a flat head screwdriver and release the spring holding the bellows to the front door/panel, then fold bellows into washer a bit. Remove front door/panel. Back bellows clamp is Phillips, loosen and remove bellows. reverse steps to put back together, but run machine in rinse/spin with top and front lower kick panel off to make sure of no leaks. Also good time to check pump lint screen for junk in it too.

After unplugging the washer, the unit was pulled forward and tipped backwards, I placed a 2x4 under the washer to serve as a brace. I removed the existing bolts holding the old pump in place, removed the spring hose clams, unplugged the pump and removed the damaged part. inserted the new drain pump, re-inserted the bolts and tightened them, replaced the spring clamps with "regular" hose clamps supplied with the replacement part, plugged in the power supply, removed the brace, pushed back the unit and plugged it into the outlet. From start to finish - about 20 minutes. Was running wash about a half hour after I started.

I pulled the front load washer away from the wall and unplugged. I tilted it back against the wall. I removed three screws from the lower front cover plate of washer. Once removed, I had access to the tub to pump hose which I found a small hole in. I went online to Partselect and found my part. The hose was connected in three different places by compression clamps. I then pulled the compression clamps off the connections. Cleaned up all connection points with a damp rag. Upon installation of the new tub to pump hose, I discarded the compression clamps and installed the new part using radiator clamps purchased at a auto parts store. Plugged washer back in and started a load too make sure all connections were good and tight with no leaks. After checking for leaks, I re-installed the front cover plate. Tilted washer back down being careful not too set it down hard or on my feet. Job Done....

open the front bottom panel (3) screws. remove panel. twist off old shocks by turning the shock counter clockwise. reinstall shock by turning clockwise.

I was already very familiar with the motor & drain pump, as I had disassembled my original one in attempt to find the problem & fix it. Finally, I broke down & purchased a new one. It was VERY easy to install! The most difficulty was finding the right sized board to put underneath & raise the machine up (with the dryer attached to the top of it) to place the board underneath so that I could tighten the bolts from underneath to attach the pump. After that was over, the rest was cake! Just attach the hoses & the electrical, which just clips in place & my washer is like new again! Yay! Oh, and yes, I'm a woman DIY'er.

Followed instructions from a You Tube video. I'd recently lost my job and money is tight and I thought we could save money doing it myself. By watching the video and ordering parts from you we were able to save $500 between parts and labor. Thanks

dryer stacked on top of washer. had to lift washer and block w/2 x 4 to get under unit and replace pump

This part worked great! Completely fixed all the problems that I had with my washer. A bit hard to actually place it in(pliers are necessary) but otherwise very easy to install.

Just went by instructions provided by parts web site

The new drawer came and I took out the the detergent despensor piece from the old drawer and placed it in the new drawer and put the new drawer back into the washer. Now the front of the washer is complete. Good as new. Part also arrived in a timely manor too. Very pleased

turned off water to mach. removed the top off the mach. with scket, removed old valve and replaced it with the new one, very easy.
