Fuses are there to protect from overheating and further damage to the appliance and/or wiring. A blown fuse is seldom ever the root cause of a problem... It is a symptom of a short or overload somewhere else in the circuit.

Check wiring to be sure there are no bare wires showing or shorting out against each other or the frame of the machine. Check that drive and pump motors turn freely (with power cord unplugged).

Your problem is NOT the fuse alone. Replacing it without correcting the root cause will result in yet another blown fuse.

I need to know where the wires goes on a maytag washer model # LAT9306AAE After replacing The lid switch?

If you are referring to the switch itself, you can connect the two wires, one on each side of the switch. It doesn't matter which one goes on either side.

Washer was in fill cycle and stopped

You've got a short circuit somewhere in that electrical circuit.

First, unplug the washing machine.
Replace the fuse. If it doesn't blow immediately, then there is likely a short in the washing machine, and from what you describe, it's in the motor.
If it blows, then there is something wrong in that circuit, and you can likely rule out the washing machine. Check all devices on that particular circuit, of which there can be a number of plugs.

My Maytag Model# LSG7806AAE Seriel# 15951872UW washer won't fill with water. I advanced the switch and it goes on when you get to the rinse and spin, but still no water.

After having a repair guy quote me $450 to fix this problem, I took it on myself. I first changed the lid switch as the repair suggested. No luck. Next, I changed the washer timer. Still no luck. Next, I disconnected the water tube and filled the washer with water ( a step I wish I had done first) and turned on the machine. The machine spins, drains, etc but still didn't fill. I changed the water valve. Still no luck. Finally, I changed the 50 cent fuse in the front left corner of the washer unit. Success! The fuse was the problem. The washer now fills correctly.

Fuse keeps blowing out in my maytag washing machine

the power surge probably shorted out something in the main wire harness or fried your motor. remove the screws from the control panel and look for any wires that are discolored, charred or disconnected. in the event you do't find it there trace the wiring thru the cabinet looking for the same thing. if you don't find that, replace the motor
