um, I'm still learning the MT models too, "If it has Buttons all across the "Dash"... it's an 806".... but what about a 608?
Gansky, whom according to your profile is a Victorian era hold over at a polished age of 149, my recent 107S model has the "automatic" button. I tried looking for a cancel button so it would pop out, but no good. I tried pushing on the Automatic button several times in a row, thinking there was like a double click thing and that would cause it to deselect. NO. I even tried taking the screws off the back panel, removing it and with a screw driver, PUSHING the back side of the button to deselect it. That didn't work either !
I've come to two conclusions: Either the button is stuck down in the Automatic position, and I need a new one, OR the wringer attachment is broken or someone has removed it. I'm even considering that it could be a manufacturers defect, but..... I don't know if Whirlpool will cover this, even with an extended warranty.
In your experience, what is usually the problem here? |

There is no chrome strip above the center dial. The chrome strip bridges the gap between the two glass panels. That's a white plastic panel on this model. |

The "Automatic" button is simply an infill for the hole in the control panel. It is not a switch, it does not move (neither in nor out), it does nothing. Your machine is a 1-speed model and that was Maytag's way of using their standard control panel while not really needing that third opening.
