Yeah, probably a bad water valve, although some of what you're describing may possibly point to a faulty timer. Maytag pretty much used the same 205613 water valve on all of the 2 belt machines from 1966-2006, so they're easily found for cheap. Here's a brand new genuine Maytag water valve on ebay for $9.00.

if you switch the wires, the cold should now work and the hot will not.....remember to put the temp selector on HOT, because you are sending power thru the HOT side, just to test the valve, and set the timer to regular wash.....if it does not work, then its your valve....press COLD selector and you should not get hot water
if it does work then your timer is faulty just mark your wires so you will know where they go when you replace the valve in the correct order.... |
