7MMVWX655EW1 Maytag Washer - Instructions

Removed belt cover from bottom of the transmission , remove old belt, clean the pulleys ,and re install new belt. The new belt fits tighter so it did a few time to get the belt fully seated. Re install belt cover.

screw driver and a rachet and socket took it off and put the new one on . no problem follow the direction that comes with it .

Safety First unplug unit, close water valves, remove upper panel with a 1/4 inch socket. Remove two screws holding the valve unplug 2 wires and replaced valve with the new one
And very impressed with the fast quick delivery of the part thank you very much

I tilted the washer to access the underside and gently attached the vice grips to keep the drive shaft from turning. I then used my socket set to remove the bolt holding the wash plate in place. I then removed the old wash plate and removed the vice grips before installing the new wash plate. Since the new wash plate engages the shaft (not stripped) I no longer needed the vice grips; it was sufficient to just hold the wash plate with one hand while tightening.

Took off washer body 6 screws
Took off old sensor installed new
Very simple and smooth

Remove the center cover with a screwdriver then loosen the 7/16 bolt with an impact driver socket ccw to remove completely biggest issue is removing bottom cover tried pick tools only thing that was succesful was some dawn dishsoap on the center bolt area to loosen enough to lift up the cover replace the hub part that had worn spline grooves remember to use blue loctite on the 7/16 bolt before re-installing cw to tighten bolt

First had to take the top of the agitator off to expose the bolt down at the bottom of the agitator. Take a ratchet with 2 1/2 extensions to get bolt off had problems so I had to use impact gun. pull agitator straight up, was stuck a little bit, but once she giving her a few tugs, it popped off the hub. On top of the hub, there is a keyway. Use a straight screwdriver and tap it out sideways. Then remove six Phillips screws and the hub pulls out. Clean the splines really good before you put new hub in. Slide new hub in put six screws in. Tighten them down evenly. Put new keyway back in slide agitator back onto shaft. Bolt on,tighten down Bolt, put top agitator back on. Replacing shift actuator tilt washer up so you can get to the bottom side take a nut driver. There’s two screws on the shield remove them that exposes the shift actuator on the side of the transmission. Remove the harness there’s a clip you push and pull straight out and there’s two screws I believe they’re Phillips And it pulls straight down put new one up in there put the two screws back in make sure the plastic tab on the shift actuator went into the tab of the transmission replaced the wire harness, push it back in make sure it snaps in put shield back on,the two screws in,and you are ready. Once you have those parts back on, you have to reset the washer instructions in your manual. It tells you how to do it. you have to do this or your washer will not work properly.

My spin cycle was running, but spinning slowly and not drying my clothes. The agitator spun quickly like normal, but the basket did not spin fast. It seemed like something was slipping. I checked the belt, but it seemed fine and it was less than a year old. I was afraid that the transmission was going, but there wasn't any grinding sound of gears. Luckily the hub part description said that this could fix the slow Spin cycle. Over all the repair was easy, but pulling the agitator off was very difficult. I've got a strong grip and patience and after about 10 - 15 mintues of yanking on the agitator it came off. Don't try to use pliers as it will damage the plastic agitator. Replacing the hub drive and reassembly went very smoothly. The old hub drive wore out because it is plastic and connects to the metal drive shaft from the transmission. After years of torque, the hub will eventually strip out. Sooner depending on your usage and heavy duty cycles. In case you don't know, your machine might have the service manual in it on the inside of the body taped to the side. Mine helped me run through some troubleshooting steps and component tests to pinpoint to problem. Thanks Parts Select!

Watch video on the site and the insulation will be easy and take about 30 min.

Followed instructions.

Removed the old hoses and screwed on the new hoses.

I removed the 2 hose clamps connecting to the pump, removed 3 screws holding pump in place, and disconnected 2 wires plugged into pump. Put the new pump on in reverse order.

Turn off the water. Disconnect both hoses. Remove the plug from the outlet. Remove five screws with a nut driver from the back panel. Remove the back panel. Remove two screws from the cold water valve. Pulled out the old valve. Install new valve with the two screws. Reinstall back panel with the five screws. Reset codes to the washer. Tested out washer. Works fine.

Went with the instructions

DIY'er working on a Maytag Centennial type washing machine should be aware that replacing a a transmission or agitator due to worn out splines is only half a job done well. I originally replaced my transmission due to worn splines, only to discover later that the worn agitator splines caused the new transmission splines to wear out at an accelerated rate. Transmission and Agitator should be replaced together, along with a new Agitator mounting bolt. There are plenty of video's online of how to do this repair so I won't get into that here. Just wanted to drop the above sage advice. Transmissions for these washers aren't cheap.
