![]() >> There was a thread that, IIRC, either explained it or provided a chart that did. >> I'm also unclear about what the difference is between a 606 and a 608, for example or a 206 and 207. It's just not urgent enough for me to go digging. That might have been my thread - I've been attempting to collect & collate official Maytag-published comparison charts for all of the 90/91/x06/x07/x08 center-dial machines. "Expanded Maytag Comparison Chart?" www.automaticwasher.org/c... As I mention in that thread though, "one of these things is not like the other", and it's the A506 that 'breaks the mold'... Despite the name, it's NOT a center-dial machine like the rest of the Ax06 models. |

![]() >> After looking at those charts I see my washer also has a tub light One small problem with those charts is that they only capture the current state of the specifications at the time of publication... So for example, in this case, there's a chance your HA806 doesn't have a tub light, as they were eliminated later on in the production run... You would have to check your machine to be sure. More info in this thread: "Documented Maytag A806 Series 1 & Series 2 changes" www.automaticwasher.org/c... |

Thats some great info! Im fortunate that both my 806 has the white dial, blue trim on the console, front panel trim. older bleach dispenser although Im not sure if this is more reliable or not, plus the mallory " scritch " timer which I prefer. My 407 uses that timer and has that dial and panel as well. I was going to look for a stainless lint filter but seeing as it was phased out 2 years prior I will leave this original. I'll have to pull the front panel and see if it has a tub light. Maybe clean the top of the tub while Im in there as well as the area the prime mover and trans are in.
