I repaired an old Maytag today. A482 series 4 The water valve was bad. Can anyone tell me how old the 482 is? It has the helical drive transmission. | ||

Sounds like a Montgomery Wards model #. Just a guess, but it's probably a late 10 series or 11 series (probably 11 series) washer. If it had ivory buttons and a timer dial knob, it's a 10 series from 1980-1984. If it had brown buttons and timer knob but silver striping around the console and timer dial, it's the short lived 11 series. If it had a gold striping around the console and timer dial, then it's a 12 series. Overall, I'd say mid 1980's.
I think a 482 should a be 4 button water level switch with a 3 button temperature control switch (Hot, Warm, Cold....all with a cold rinse). | ||
