SOURCE: I just bought a house

  1. purchase a coin insert and blank the slot that coins fit in, then the slide will slid in without coins, just acting like a button, if you examine the slide you wil notice that there are plastic inserts in unused coin slots, any maytag commercial dealer has them.
  2. replace coin slide with 'free operation' converter, which is just a button plate that pushes the striker on the timer switch
  3. take top cover off and just push the striker on the timer, (this is NOT) a recommended option, 220v is enough to spoil you whole day)

Unfortunately if you do not have a good locksmith, you will have to drill out the locks and replace them. Not a cheap solution by any means.....If I can help further, I am here.... Eric Campion

Change the price on maytag top loading washer
Price change for a model MAT12.
Remove the access plate above the coin acceptor with a key. The display should show code 6 and two numbers. Code 6 is the regular cycle and the number of coins required to start. Press the perm press button to advance the number of coins. 06 equals 6 quarters, 08 equals 8 quarters, etc.
Reinstall the access door when finished.

Washing machine wont come on but i check the plugs and the push button are okey . you know any other parts that needs to be replace ? thank you.
If this is a kenmore front loader (boxy type made by frigidaire), the button must be
depressed for several seconds. The second problem with this model is the "coin
mechanism" cam must be in the correct position to operate the machine. If someone
puts in coins two times without starting, it can get out of sequence with the timer.
If you have a key, open coin box and move the metal arm back until the cam advances
to just before the big dip. (with the unit unplugged). The next cycle will allow the
arm to drop and engage the microswitches. If you don't have a key put coins in the
slide mechanism as though you were going to start the machine and
depress button until machine starts, this will reset the cam to the correct position.
Hard to explain but if you look at the coin mechanism, it will become obvious.
If you need a new mechanism it is called the "start mechanism" for front loaders.
Hope this helps.

Agitation does not stop when lid is open... Kenmore 20172 Top Load coin-op Washer needs new lid switch? Cost? Easy to Fix? Do I need a expert to do? Thank you...
sounds like the lid switch is jammed on- you can try to spray it with WD 40 or replace it it usually requires taking the machine apart to get at the wiring. Easy fis, just need patience. the switch should be able to be ordered online.
