Extreme imbalance
This washer would not go into spin cycle without going out of balance no matter how we arranged the contents in the drum. We were looking to buy a front loader when I happened open this company with video instructions and positive comments from other people with the same issue. For the cost it was worth a try. Following the video and in less than one hour the washer was back in service. It now operates like the day we installed it new. Highly recommend this fix which should save you hundreds on a new washer.

The top part of the agitator was not turning; the cams had disintegrated
I did the repair as specified in the excellent video supplied with the confirmation of my order. It would not have take more than 15 minutes if I had ignored the 13 years of built up scum on all the parts as I disassembled the agitator. Cleaning everything before reassembling took most of the time. It made no sense to me to have the agitator apart without cleaning everything. It works fine now and looks shiny clean.

No movement in upper agitator.
Replaced upper agitator cam kit assembly, very easy to replace and in about 15 minutes. I would also like to mention about PartSelect's web sit is very easy to find your parts and at good prices they even have video's if you need a little explanation on how to install your part.

Washer would go into the cycle to rinse dry.
Replacing the part was fairly easy. However it did not resolve the problem. The spin cycle did not activate,leaving my washer full of water. We ordered another Maytag Washer. Hopefully this one doesn't break down for a long time.

Upper Agitator not working
I am so glad that I found this site!! We had our washing machine looked at by a repair guy that wanted to charge us $90 +labor to repair the agitator. I looked on this site and found the parts and how to fix it myself. It cost me $6.52!!!! I can't believe that he was going to charge me for the agitator when all it was, was the dog ear cams!
Thanks again!
Greg

The agitator wouldn't turn.
The part came in the mail. We (my daughter(12 years old) and I) opened the box. Took the part out and measured it (the description didn't fit the requirements). It turned out to be the correct part. My daughter undid the retaining bolt and pulled out the old agitator. We compared the the parts side by side, and everything matched. We put the new part in, aligned the splines, and reinstalled the retaining bolt. Everything went perfectly.
Thanks,
