This Maytag Centinel washer is making a grinding noise during agitate. This repair can mirror a whirlpool washer as well. The wash plate or agitator was the culprit. The spline on the agitator where it connects to the transmission we’re stripped. I believe it stripped due to the coins that we found under the wash plate. The coins may have jammed the agitator so the transmission trying to spin it cause the spline to strip. The fix on this was changing out the wash plate. Changing out the agitator fix this.
Hope this helps, thanks for watching like and subscribe! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
This was exactly what was wrong with mine. Thank you for making this video!!!
That’s exactly the issue. Thank you so much!! Single mama in college…local repair person quoting me way too much $$$, was ready to just replace it. I’m so glad I saw your video. Thank you 🙏
Was able to fix my washer thanks to this video! My washerplate was a bit stuck, but I used some vinegar to help free it.
You saved me a $75 service call. There were coins stuck between the agitator. Thank you.
The grinding noise is fixed. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for posting this video. When my wife told me something was wrong, I listened to the rubbing sound and went straight to Google. Fortunately, you're video was the first hit/result.
Saying thank you just doesn’t seem like enough! This was the first time I’ve ever had an easy fix with any appliance I have owned. And your “to the point” demonstration with instructions were truly a blessing. Thank you thank you thank you Have made my day more than you can ever realize!
You and I both know you didn't fix your machine.
@@Zanenoth😂
I came here to say there’s not a chance of hell you fixed your machine and especially not from this video. The other did the other 53 of you didn’t either
Thanks to you, I was literally able to get to the bottom of things and remove $1.25 worth of quarters along with two mangled bobby pins from beneath the agitator of my GE washer! Now I have one less worry accompanied by a grinding sound effect!
Hi, did it work properly after removing the coins ,? I had a similar problem and removed the coin but it is still making noise
@@TJ_775you need a new wash plate/agitator then. Just a few days ago I pulled coins out of mine but it still did it and the splines on my piece were completely worn down to nothing so it wasn’t able to grab the piece it connects to for it to spin. The piece itself is pretty cheap on Amazon. I spent $35 on an Amazon choice one because I’m not paying for a Whirlpool part when it’s about $100 and the same thing as the cheaper one. I’m about to put my new piece on now! Good luck!
@@BrutalBeauty90How did it go?
@@fyiispy8014 went good! Was real easy to swap out too. Just need an 11 socket or wrench. It’s still working good!
I thought that this was an electrical problem, not a mechanical problem, thanks for the video it's a big help!
Thank you!! Awesome video. I feel like that's our issue. It went all of a sudden after a heavy load.
Thanks for the vid. I think my Cabrio is grinding during the water discharge cycle. I will definitely check the wash plate. I had already replaced the discharge pump and discharge hose b/c of a leak.
thanks beard...I was thinking trans/clutch agitator drives etc. nope...easy & relatively inexpensive fix with the wash plate. great video!
Thank you. Easy fix when you know. I used my impact to remove the screw. Way easier because the torque does not get transmitted to the washplate.
You absolutely should have filmed removing the wash plate. Thats the main thing people need to see my guy.
Absolutely! Not some of the time but most of the time they are Absolutely terrible to get out..mine usually come out in pieces
This is the only hard part
Only thing that worked for me was sticking paracord down the sides of the plate, wrapping it then pulling up.
Thank goodness! I have a top load whirlpool with the glass top and I really thought it was my washer gear case (motor that spins wash plate/agitator), and that piece is like $200! But I decided to try this piece first since it’s the cheapest and I’m about to install it. Mine is making the same nasty noise and won’t wash my clothes good and splines on my wash plate are also wore down. My washer also had coins 🙈. My husband decided to put some medical coban around the part the wash plate/agitator connects to and it started working normally for the first cycle so then I was certain it was the wash plate/agitator. Off to getting my short self to put the new piece in because I’m too impatient to wait on my husband to get home 😅. This video was VERY helpful!
I use racket with extention and long handle came right out Mine had 1.75 in coins and bobby pins. Careful don't tighten that 7/16 too much or agitator won't move. I used Teflon tape and all worked great. Easy job. I liked and followed. Saved me 200 bucks ..Thanks
I hope my issue is only coins on my 4 yr old Amana. I'm taking it apart to see. If it's only the bottom plate I guess I'll have to buy one, but I'm going to check it right now.
Thank you for your knowledge and insight. This will more than likely solve my issue
Thanks for the video and tips. It sure did help me figure the issue I had with my top loader.
This was very helpful. I now know what you do. I so appreciate you and what you do. You are awsome. God bless you.
How can I get someone to fix this problem
This is a great opportunity for me to keep our new Maytag working properly. I don't think I would have thought much about coins and other objects causing such havoc! You probably saved me a lot of headaches THANK YOU!
Thank you for this video. My wash plate had coins beneath it and was filthy. Coin removal and a clean up of the parts got it back to working smoothly!
How did u remove the coins stuck?
Tweazers
@@monicablack9060 I took it apart as shown in the video. I removed the extra coins that way.
Worked like a charm…coins everywhere. Many thanks!!!
Thanks this fixed it! Thanks for sharing this info.
Awesome. We'll I have a Kenmore 700 S series. Seems like it will be the same repair. So now to find where to get the new agitator gear.
Now I need to figure out how to clean the dryer for this same series I have. I've clean the dryer vent stack in the wall. I've tried to clean out the dryer itself as much as possible without taking the dryer apart. The check lint trap light keeps turning on. Plus AF ( I think that stands for air flow ).
Ugh, I'm sure it will be easy and in the end rewarding.
Thanks for your help.
Blessings.
Thank you man this fixed my washing machine there was a dime stuck in it. No parts needed.
Ty for this video my washer is now back to its ole self
Your video and assistance are very helpful
This sounds like my problem! Hope my repair is as simple! Thanks bud!
Thank you for the great video! I was struggling with the wash plate, ready to break it when I heard your vise grip trick. Worked like a charm!
I can’t get that plate out. I already removed the bolt but it won’t come out. How did you get it out?
having the same problems getting mine off. Any advise on what to do with the Vice grips? Or is it a simple grab a hold of it a jerk it off.
This guys got really creative th-cam.com/video/orBgQ9lejPE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thanx, this is going to help me
much to fix my washer.
Awesome video, straight to the point👊🏽
Thank you so much I will give it a try🙏😀
Awsome video exactly what my washer is doing. Thank you for doing these videos.
Great video! Thank you!
Thank you very much. We have Sears Home Warranty and they are not helpful. You have taught me so much. Best.
Good 👍 job. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Your the man!
So useful! THANKS!
Thank you for your advice 😃😀
You are awesome … yes diagnostic video
Thank you. This helps me immensely at 50% of my issue. I have a portable washer/dryer. Now I know what the issue is, but not quite how to fix it on my machine. I still can't tell you how much you've helped this widow with a toddler barely scraping by financially. I know you saved me a massive amount of pretty pennies. Thank you.
Our wash plate had a penny under it that caused the problem for it not to work. After removing the penny the washer now works! Had to use a dewalt clamp to stop the tub from turning since the bolt was so hard to remove. Cost of repair.... zero! We WIN !!!
Thanks alot for the video, it made it easy to change
You're great BTW! Very explicit & in layman's terms so we DIY-ers cab understand!
Appreciate it!
Thank you for your explanation.
Thanks for your video. My brand new washer is making the grinding noise. I’m waiting for tech to do repair or get e new unit from seller. Your info was very informative
Same thing happened to ours, thanks for the help!
Thanks for this video! It looks like Maytag changed the design. Mine has a tall center shaft so first you need a ratchet extension of about 12”. Upon taking off the agitator, they’ve gone with a spindle with spline system that’s akin to bike 3pc crank and spindle. My washer’s about 4-1/2 years old, top load. I did find a broken zipper, maybe that was creating the squeal. Reassembling now and will test. If that didn’t solve it, then the next options start to become more of a hassle!
It’s almost impossible to get the wash plates out without busting. Well worth your time to check for play in the tub bf going through with this repair
I have the same issue but the bolt backed out and the washplaye came off , I'm ordering a new wash plate but in the meantime I wrapped some electrical tape around tightly around the transmission shaft . Running a lid now ,hopefully it works
I had the sound and checked the agitator bearings and they were fine.
Taking back panel off I found a shiny nut with locking grooves on the floor.
It came off the motor.
Used a mirror and cellphone camera to find it.
Reattach it and it was fine.
May need Loctite if it comes loose again. Pain putting it back on by feel.
Thanks 👍
Gonna try this hope it works!! Thank you!
Thanks for the awesome video, this helped out a lot. Is there a reason why the bolt doesn't have a rubber washer? I noticed my agitator needs replacing but the transmission shaft looks likes there's corrosion to the teeth as well and not sure how long this fix will last once my agitator replacement comes in. Any thoughts?
I just had my washer serviced for it was making a grinding/ groaling noise. Mine was the hub plate needed replaced. I even had a nickle totally stripped smooth on the back.
Thank you so much. Your video has been a big help!
Thanks!! Ordering to fix today!!
Man! You nailed it! Thank you! I followed your steps and figured out the problem. But only found a measly $0.11 in the process. 😐
We found $1.50!!!! Lol!!!
Thank you for the video!! I was able to fix this myself and saved so much money.
Thank you for the video. I have replaced the same agitator on my Maytag Bravos MVWX655DW1, coins are always getting stuck in it and clothing is often destroyed. I think the damage to clothing might be common and worthy of a class action lawsuit against the makers for a major flaw, not to mention a terrible washer.
Dang...you done well !
I fixed it .
Very helpful video. Thanks!
You're welcome!
Thank you.

My man thank you!
You bet!
Thank you sir!
You just saved me 700 bucks !! Thank you 👍🏼
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the video!
I replaced my bearings that were shot. My stator is cracked but I reinstalled it. I reused the old shaft because the new shaft's skirt was too low and couldn't get the threads to show in the bottom after tightening the bearings x 3. When I compared it with the old shaft there was a 1/2 difference. So put it all back together and did first load with jeans and colors. All went great, very silent clothes came out all dry. The third load the machine was squeaking during spin and would throw the uL code even after I repositioned the clothes more than four times. What do you think is causing that? Cracked stator? Over tightened bearings?
awsome job
This HELP!!
Hi.
Good night.
I have a question the part I need to buy for the agitator is the one you let the link?
I appreciate this.
Thanks for this video saved me from buying a new washer
No problem 👍
awesome explanation
Good video. I have been through several of these garbage washing machine over just a few years. I woke up this morning to find my machine doing this. I will replace this washplate and if anything else breaks it's going to be trashed just like the rest. Dvdn buying a transmission for one of these quickly makes it not worth fixing. Seems like all Lowe's sells anymore is disposable junk. I remember my first washer was the cheapest most basic one Sears had and I got 15 years of hard use out of it. Again thanks for your help.
Hope this helps. Mined didn't either after I replaced wash plate and thought I did something wrong. Not the case after all. Ran diagnostic for my actual machine and it gives you what it should sound if working correctly. Plus no fault codes came up! Whoo Hoo! Need to do run calibration test now.

Helpful video & advice
thanks for the info buddy
thanks.
Thank you SO MUCH FOR YOUR video! Let me begin with, this washer has been a disappointment since we bought it! I've NEVER been happy with water levels (same on ALL settings), cleaning capabilities, lid lock feature, or wash times. The benefits of saving water only adds to use of more electricity, and those features are not a priority for me.
MY ISSUE:
-app. 2 weeks ago, huge clumps of half dissolved/rinsed detergent on numerous items in load
-diagnostic test specified actuator error code
-replaced, test cycle, calibrated, no error code, BUT still much detergent residue
-cleaned ALL drain hoses and removed small nail from inside pump... Spins freely
-inlet filters clean, supply lines have good water pressure
-drain hose is in correct position
-ran washer on its CLEANING cyle
-calibrated, test cycle, result... Another detergent clumped load -repeated diagnostic/test.... new error code LID LOCK
PLEASE HELP!
The owner's manual is useless, and we live in such a rural area, Jesus will return before we can get service/technician.
When you run the washer try running it with hot water. If your using pods they won’t resolve properly unless the water is a certain temperature. Also when you mention clumped up detergent it makes me thing it’s not getting enough water. Does it fill up properly? Using warm water is good for your machine helps keep it clean so when you can use hot or warm to help clean it out as it’s being used. I find many customers and I used to do this myself but I would only use cold water in everything. Even towels lol. Make sure you wash white in hot along with towels. Helps with everything cleaner clothes and washing machine.
Is that the only issue. The clumped up detergent? The codes may be confusing you. If it will fill, agitate, drain and spin. That’s all your washer really does.
My instincts tell me you have a fill problem. Great information for me to build on too to try and help.
@@BeardedApplianceRepair i have a fill issue also..accompanied with the wash plate issue.
very good information. It helps me to fix my washer.
This video is very helpful as I have the same washer as you have in the video. However, I cannot get the agitator off. You had trouble with the one in the video as well. Can you give me the trick with getting it off? Does it make sense to try to free up the agitator from down below?
I bought a new clutch and after that didn’t fix the problem I go on google and search for someone with a similar problem and I stumble into this video of Omar fixing the exact problem my washing machine has. This made my night I don’t even care about my washing machine anymore dude you’re a legend from my high school days living with chase.
Hello thanks so much for your video on washplate repair..just wondering if you could do one on lid lock. Mu cabrio says lid is locked but you can open the lid without pausing. Also some tome oi hear the lock engage and other times I dont ?
Seen you video and ordered the part on Amazon. $30. The Washer Washplate easily slid off so I was able to repair in less than 5 mins thanks to your video. Washer is ready for the wifey to fu** it up again!!!!!! LOL Husbands world!!!!!
Great vid THANK YOU I HATE this washing machine HATE IT .I hate senses ..hate it. Only b/c it's not working thought .lol ..of course after the warranty needs it starts messing up .sorry need to vent . GREAT VID AND THANK YOU SO MUCH .
