Why is my Maytag Washer vibrating so much?
- A
  Aaron RamseySep 3, 2025
  Your Maytag Washer might be vibrating excessively because the feet are not in firm contact with the floor and locked, or the jam nuts are not tight against the bottom of the cabinet. Ensure both front and rear feet firmly contact the floor and that the washer is level. Another reason could be that the washer is not level. Inspect the floor for flexing or sagging. If the flooring is uneven, placing a 3/4" (19 mm) piece of plywood under the washer can help reduce the vibration.

  If you're finding lint on your clothes after drying, the most common cause is a lint screen clogged with lint. Make sure to clean the lint screen before each load to prevent this issue.

How to get rid of wrinkles in Maytag Dryer?
- O
  ocoxSep 2, 2025
  To reduce wrinkles in your dried clothes, ensure you remove the load from the dryer promptly at the end of the cycle. If wrinkles are already present, use Auto or Custom Refresh cycles to tumble the load with water and heat. Ensure you dry smaller loads that can tumble freely. If using steam cycles, verify that the water is properly connected to the dryer, with the water inlet hose connected to both the faucet and the dryer's water inlet valve, and that the water supply is turned on.

Why is my Maytag Dryer load too hot?
- A
  Ana HernandezSep 1, 2025
  If the load is too hot, allow the dryer to complete the cool down portion of the cycle before removing the load. If you are using a Timed Dry Cycle with a high temperature setting, select a Sensor cycle with a lower heat setting to avoid overdrying.

What does the 'Check Vent' indicator on my Maytag Dryer mean?
- A
  Aaron MeltonAug 31, 2025
  The 'Check Vent' indicator means the lint screen or vent is clogged, crushed, kinked, or has too many turns. Clean the lint screen, check the vent run from the dryer to the wall for any crushing or kinking, and ensure it’s free of lint and debris. Also, check the exterior vent exhaust hood for obstructions and confirm your vent system meets the recommended length and elbow limits. If the message persists, have your home venting run cleaned by a specialist.

What causes water leaks in my Maytag Washer?
- A
  adambergAug 30, 2025
  Water leaks in your Maytag Washer can be caused by several factors: the washer not being level (water may splash off the basket), fill hoses not attached tightly, fill hose washers not properly seated, or issues with the drain hose connection. Ensure the washer is level, tighten the fill-hose connections, and make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated. Pull the drain hose from the washer cabinet and securely attach it to the drainpipe or laundry tub, avoiding placing tape over the drain opening. Check household plumbing for leaks or a clogged sink or drain, as water can back up from these issues. Also, ensure the washer is loaded as recommended, as an unbalanced load can cause the basket to be out of alignment and cause water to splash.

Why is my load too hot in Maytag Dryer?

  holmesmatthewAug 28, 2025
  If your laundry load is too hot after drying, it might be because the load was removed before the cool down portion of the cycle was complete. Allow the dryer to finish the entire cycle, including the cool down. Alternatively, if you are using a Timed Dry Cycle with a high temperature setting, switch to a Sensor cycle with a lower heat setting to prevent overdrying.

How to fix rattling or vibrating noise in Maytag BRAVOS XL Dryer?
- D
  donald26Aug 28, 2025
  A rattling or vibrating noise in your Maytag dryer could be due to several reasons. Check for small objects caught between the edges of the dryer drum. Make sure to clean out pockets before laundering. Also, ensure the dryer is properly leveled with all four feet firmly on the floor. Uneven leveling can cause vibrations. If clothing is balled up inside, separate the items to allow them to tumble freely.

Why is my Maytag BRAVOS XL not heating up?
- A
  Angel JacobsAug 27, 2025
  If your Maytag dryer's drum is turning but not heating, the issue might be related to the electrical supply. Electric dryers use two household fuses or circuit breakers, so check and replace any blown fuses or reset tripped circuit breakers. If problems persist, contact an electrician to check if your electric dryer is receiving the required 240-volt power supply. For gas dryers, ensure the valve on the gas supply line is open.
