What to do if my Maytag W11099670B Washer won’t run or fill?
- K
  Kyle ChapmanAug 20, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer won’t run or fill, stops working, or the wash light remains on, there are a few things to check. First, ensure that both water hoses are properly attached and have water flowing to the inlet valve. Also, check the inlet valve screens for clogs and ensure there are no kinks in the inlet hoses. Make sure the power cord is plugged into a grounded 3-prong outlet. Remember that the lid must be closed for the washer to operate. If the washer is tightly packed, remove some items and rearrange the load evenly. Finally, ensure you are using HE detergent and not using too much, as suds from regular detergents can hinder operation.

Why is my Maytag Washer leaking water?
- J
  Jennifer ThomasAug 22, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer is leaking water, there are several potential causes to investigate. Ensure the washer is level, as water may splash off the basket if it is not. Check that the fill hoses are tightly attached and that all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated. Also, verify the drain hose connection is secure. Examine your household plumbing for any leaks or clogs in the sink or drain, as these can cause water to back up. Finally, ensure the washer is loaded as recommended, as unbalanced loading can cause splashing.

Why is my Maytag W11099670B Washer not draining or spinning properly?
- H
  Heidi RogersAug 25, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer is not draining or spinning, leaving loads wet, or the spin light remains on, several factors could be responsible. Small items caught in the pump or between the basket and tub can slow draining, so empty pockets and use garment bags. Using a cycle with a low spin speed will also result in wetter loads. Make sure the washer is not tightly packed or unbalanced, and arrange the load evenly. Verify the drain hose is properly installed. Too much detergent can also cause excessive suds, slowing draining and spinning, so use only HE detergent and follow directions. To remove extra suds, select DRAIN & SPIN and the Extra Rinse option.

Why are there dry spots on my clothes after using my Maytag W11099670B?
- D
  Dana FordAug 26, 2025
  If you notice dry spots on your load after a cycle in your Maytag Washer, it's likely due to the high-speed spins, which extract more moisture than traditional top-load washers. These high speeds, combined with airflow during the final spin, can cause items near the top of the load to develop dry spots. If needed, use the PowerWash® or Bedding cycle for a higher water fill, or select the Deep Fill setting.

Why is there not enough water in my Maytag W11099670B Washer?
- E
  Eric TaylorAug 28, 2025
  If you observe that your Maytag Washer doesn't have enough water, it is normal for Auto Sensing Water Level mode. The load will not be completely under water because the washer senses load sizes and adds the correct amount of water for optimal cleaning performance in High Efficiency operation. You can also run a clean washer cycle to optimize the water level and wash performance. If needed, rearrange the load or select DRAIN & SPIN to remove extra water.

Why is my laundry load not rinsed well in my Maytag W11099670B?
- M
  Michael PattersonAug 29, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer load is not rinsed properly, it might be because the washer is tightly packed. A tightly packed washer is less efficient at rinsing.

Why is the lid locked light flashing on my Maytag Washer?
- F
  Frank GrayAug 31, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer lid locked light is flashing, it means the lid is not closed properly. Ensure that the lid is fully closed, as the washer will not start or fill with the lid open.

Why are the wash temperatures wrong on my Maytag W11099670B?
- C
  Connor GallegosSep 2, 2025
  If you are experiencing incorrect or wrong wash or rinse temperatures with your Maytag Washer, start by checking for proper water supply. Ensure that the hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed. Keep in mind that High Efficiency washers use cooler wash and rinse water temperatures than traditional top-load washers, as part of their energy-saving design.

What to do if my Maytag W11099670B Washer is making clicking noises?
- J
  John Hines Jr.Sep 4, 2025
  If your Maytag Washer is making clicking or metallic noises, it could be due to objects caught in the washer drain system. Empty pockets before washing, as loose items like coins could fall between the basket and tub or block the pump. If you cannot remove the items yourself, it may be necessary to call for service.

Why is my Maytag W11099670B dispenser not working correctly?
- D
  Destiny HopkinsSep 6, 2025
  If you're experiencing incorrect dispenser operation with your Maytag Washer, it may be due to clogged dispensers or laundry products dispensing too soon. Avoid overfilling the dispenser, as this causes immediate dispensing. Also, only use liquid chlorine bleach in the bleach dispenser.
