Atlantis won't agitate. Will spin. Was previously making a high pitch sound a few months ago. Major or minor do it yourself repair?

Oil pressure indicator/engine won't start

I would drain the oil and refresh inc filter, take all plugs out and spin it over with new oil fitted and filter, if it feels sounds tight, squirt some WD40 in the pots, spin again if looser maybe a strip down eh.

Maytag top loading washer will not agitate

My rule of thumb: Take what you paid for the washer new and divide by number of years without repairs. That is your cost per year for the washer. If the repair will get you another year and is less than the number above do the repair. If you have done more than 2 major repairs in a year it is time to think new. eric

High pitched buzz/whine during wash cycle only, spin fine

1) Make sure valve is open all the way 2) some machines have a screen inside of the hose hook up which could be clogged. 3) last check to see if it is the hot or cold by switch your selector switch on your machine to hot then cold. If one of these positions eliminate the noise then the valve in the machine is bad.

Load squeal when it in the agitation cycle.

Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.
