When we set the washer on mini wash it fills up with a lot of water, It does the same thing with settings of small and medium. It has a slot for reset on
the switch, but I can't tell that it has any affect on it.When we set the washer on mini wash it fills up with a lot of water, It does the same thing with settings of small and medium. It has a slot for reset on

Re: Same balance problem as ghouse has with his Maytag
We are discussing at least three issues, one a drain issue and two is a pressure switch that I would replace before I try to reset it. Three possibly a clogged pump.

Perfectly normal.. What you are actually hearing is a balance ring on the inner tub that has liquid inside to help keep washing loads balanced. The balance ring is filled with a calcium chloride solution and baffles within the ring allow the fluid to disperse within the ring evenly By rotating the spin basket you can hear the fluid dispersing within the baffles of the balance ring.
Thebalanceringisfilledwithacelciurnchloridesolutionandbaffles,withintheringallowthefluidtodispersewithinthe:ring,evenly I also thought ours was not draining properly but discovered otherwise when I had to take the inner tub out for a bearing repair job.. Hope this puts your mind at rest..
You most likely are not hearing water remaining in the tub. You are hearing the water slosh around in the balance ring that is attached to the spin basket. There is a balance ring attached to the spin basket that is half filled with water. When the basket is turned by hand you will hear the water in the balance ring. This is normal.
if you do not see water in the tube and the clothes have spun out enough to go into the dryer when the washer cycle finishes the washer has drained out all of the water the water you hear in the tub when the door is open and you spin the tub with your hand that liquid is in the sealed balance ring , that is a sealed channel around the front of the tub to help the machine stay balanced it does not come out
It appears that you have an imbalanced load, or a nearly balanced load with a machine that easily goes off balance during spin. I would suggest:
1. After the unit trips on imbalance and stops spinning, open the lid and redistribute the laundry load inside to balance its weight equally around the interior of the drum. Note that cotton fabrics hold much more water than synthetics, and this has resulted in imbalanced loads even though they visually appear to be balanced. Close lid to restart spin.
2. Remove the front panel and check both tensioning/centering springs on the sides of the tub. A loose spring could easily cause the machine to go off balance.
3. Finally, check the main bearng play by holding the drum steady and moving the top of the agitator spindle horizontally toward the rim of the tub. Any excessive play is a clear indicator that bearing is excessively worn and may be resulting in an unbalanced load.
If you have already replaced the filter and you can see the housing is still leaking, You have to replace the housing and water tank as an assembly (12956202). Make sure you verify it's the filter housing leaking, and not a fitting at the water valve which is right behind the plastic cover around and below the filter housing.
Hiya .. would suggest you having a look at the balance around the drum, ( normally heavy concrete blocks)... locate the fixing bolts and tighten them up ....should sort your prob.
Also make sure that the washer is fairly even and tight on its legs.. this is what usually causes the problem in the first place..
